Picking oranges from my tree!!! Sure wish they were apples instead!
My orange tree is producing like crazy...Sure wish it was an apple tree. Can you grown apple trees in the area where you live?

Apples yes, oranges no
NJ is pretty good for apples, but oranges can't cut it here. The only problem I've found with growing any kind of fruit tree is the pests. We've had pears, apples and peaches and they need a lot of pesticide to keep them healthy unfortunately. Not easy to grow them organically. Figs and berries seem to fare better here as long as they are looked after.
