Hi there,

For the first time in my life I am buying trees, specifically fruit
and probably citrus.

Is Home Depot any good for this? There are a number of terrific
nurseries around here but it is a matter of time not money, if there
is even a difference. I am not sure. I was kind of caught by surprise
here.


What do you all say?

Take care,
Julie in SFBA

I don't know about the SFBA, but the Home Depot's around the Dallas, Tx area
only sell fruit trees in the spring.  Their trees are fine, but you may find
a limited selection of varieties.  I've bought peach , pears and figs from
HD and they have always been fine.  But now you have me curious.....it's a
matter of time and not  money?
What's the rush? (if you care to  elaborate)

I thought that fall was the best time to plant trees? The fruit trees
are hitting Orchard Supply now, too.

Whoops, sorry, hit the "send" key too soon.

I was going to say that we here in the Bay Area have a different
sense of planting seasons than people in many other parts of the
country. :-) I, too, am getting ready to do some planting--just
as my friends in Michigan are putting away their garden tools
for the next few months.
