Not necessarily your favourite fruit to eat, but what is/are your favourite fruit tree(s) to grow based on survival rate, fruit yield, ease of maintenance, ease of harvest, grass-killing prowess, and any other combination of factors? What is/are your least favourite? If you have photos or diagrams to illustrate your point, even better!

(If you provide your region and/or Köppen-Geiger or Trewartha climate zone, it will help others to know what to plant or what to avoid!)

    Loquat, If my backyard was big enough I would plant one. It is described as shrub or small tree but in my area they grow quite a bit.

    Great fruit that is ripe through spring and early summer, plenty of fruit to share (maybe too much once the tree is big) and super easy to grow.

      Too much fruit is never really too much! Plant your own, grow your own, harvest your own, and share…
