Fruit Trees

Live fruit trees and tropical fruit plants grown in Central Florida. Our fig trees and banana plants are propagated from tissue culture, meaning each one is started in a sterile lab environment from a single healthy parent plant. For figs that matters because fig mosaic virus is widespread in conventionally propagated cuttings. For bananas it matters even more — Panama disease and other soil-borne pathogens spread easily through the pup division that backyard growers normally rely on.

Everything in this collection suits warm climates. Our Celeste figs thrive in USDA Zones 7 through 10 and handle Southern humidity better than most varieties thanks to their closed eye, which keeps rain and insects out of the fruit. Our Dwarf Cavendish and Gran Nain bananas grow in Zones 8 through 11 and can fruit within about eighteen months of planting — faster than nearly any other fruit tree you could put in the ground.

All of these grow well in large containers if you are short on yard space or want the option to move them under shelter for a hard freeze.
