Dwarf fruiting varieties are suitable for growing in large pots.  Grafted varieties are grown on stronger or disease-resistant rootstocks.

Dwarf Varieties

Usually grafted onto a dwarfing rootstock, dwarf fruit trees are very popular in the home garden. Many now available for sale are suited for growing in pots and containers.

Grafted Varieties

Trees are grafted for a number of reasons. Usually, they are grafted onto a more resilient rootstock, which includes dwarfing rootstock. They can also be multi-grafted with more than one fruit on one tree.

Espaliered Trees

Espalier varieties are excellent for limited space and growing on walls and fences.

When to plant fruit trees

This will depend on how you buy them and where you live.

  • Bare-rooted trees will always be planted in mid to late winter.
  • Potted varieties can be planted at any time of the year. The best time is in early autumn. The soil is still warm so you will get some root growth before winter. This gives the trees time to settle in before the first summer. You can also plant in early spring.
  • Spring can be a good time to plant in warmer climates where you get wet summers.

Fruit trees are a popular choice for both commercial and smaller-scale planting in orchards, backyards, and home gardens across Australia. These trees have been part of the Australian landscape since the early days of settlement, initially arriving with settlers who brought various cultivars to the continent.

In home gardens, the most common fruit trees are typically Apple, Plum, and Lemon varieties. However, today, a wider variety of fruit trees, grapevines, and berry-producing plants are available than ever before.

Thanks to the availability of high-quality trees suited to various climate regions across Australia, growing fruit trees has become very popular. It allows people to enjoy fresh produce and the opportunity to preserve and share these delicious fruits with family and friends.

You can easily obtain a wide range of fruit tree varieties through online sources, local nurseries, or specialized nurseries. Planting and pruning fruit trees is not difficult, and suppliers can offer helpful guidelines for assistance.
