Welcome to Fruitful Trees! Today I’m taking you on an incredible tour of Al’s Tropical Fruit Trees, a 5-acre nursery in Homestead, Florida filled with mangoes, sapodillas, star apples, mamey sapote, jaboticaba, jackfruit, lychee, longan, loquat, jujube, carambola, and so much more.
Al has been growing fruit trees since 2010 and shares decades of hands-on experience, including:
• How he built his nursery after the 2009 recession
• What fruit trees are the easiest and hardest to grow
• The best mango varieties for pots and small yards
• Managing fertilizer, irrigation, pests, and root growth
• Why some trees (custard apple!) are bad choices for small properties
• Which varieties produce best in South Florida conditions
• What to avoid planting near a drain field
• Rare trees you don’t see often: white ilama, butterscotch sapodilla, huge mamey, thornless jujube, etc.
This nursery has one of the best selections in Florida, including multiple sizes (3G, 7G, 15G, 25G, 45G+) and some rare cultivars that are extremely hard to find.
If you’re looking for fruit trees in South Florida—especially Homestead, Miami, Broward, Palm Beach—this is a must-watch.
