I have been reading online regarding the fruit varieties that do well in New Jersey and I am still at no decision. Calling on fruit growers to share their opinion regarding what variety of apple, peach, apricot, nectarine, pear, plum, grapes, sweet and sour cherry to chose. I am looking into planting the trees in my limited space backyard. I can keep few grow but for most of them I will need to control their size. I want fresh fruit for eating and any extra will be preserved. Looking into varieties that will be decently productive and taste well. I do not care if they look perfect. Self pollinated varieties would be preferred since I do not have much space. I prefer to avoid spraying my fruit and vegetables and grow my trees and plant as natural and organic as possible. I might be naïve and need to reconsider this decision with some or all the fruit tree. I grow up in family that had a beautiful varieties of fruit and vegetable growing without the use of chemicals. Besides that point I need a help to pick some varieties for my small backyard orchard. :)
Can someone suggest the nursery, either local in South New Jersey or online that is selling varieties suited to be well grown in New Jersey?
Thanks,
Vesna
