Choose Fruit Tree Species According to the Weather

If you are one of those who like to eat fruit and would like to plant fruit trees in your garden, you should know that some fruit species are more suitable for each climate.

The first thing to consider before planting a fruit tree in your garden is the weather.

If the weather is cold, there are 3 limitations related to low temperatures. The first limitation is the cool continental climate, where frequent and very strong frosts occur during the winter season, preventing these plants from living outdoors. The second is the climate in which frosts occur during the flowering season, that is, those fruit trees that bloom just during this time of year preventing the flowers from growing, and the third is in a warm climate, as there is not enough cold, certain species cannot be cultivated because they cannot accumulate cold in the winter.

If you live in an area where there are seasons, and winter is characterized by being strong and cold, I recommend that you do not plant fruit species that do not withstand low temperatures , you should not plant tropical or subtropical fruit trees, because, if they manage to survive the cold, they will not produce any fruit.

Nor should you choose varieties that bloom during those weeks of the year when there is a greater risk of a sharp drop in temperature. To avoid this type of fruit trees you must know the approximate time of flowering and know exactly if during that time there is a chance of frost. It is very important to know these data, since if the flower of ice, it will fall from the tree and no fruit will be produced.
