My apple tree that I planted recently actually has teeny-tiny apples on it now. I was so excited to see them! I finally got a fruit tree to grow fruit! I don't think I've been so excited since I adopted my youngest son 4 years ago.

It is a fairly mature tree. Usually I buy smaller ones, but this was the only size apple tree the nursery had in stock.

I would love to grow an orange tree. I love oranges! Does anybody know if they are hard to grow in Arizona? I know they need alot of water.

The last time I was in Phoenix, I saw orange trees growing Roguegal. So, although I don't live there, and have only been there twice, I believe they will grow there.

I see them all the time as well. But the oranges off of them are lousy. They're used mainly as decorative foliage. I don't know if orange trees can be grown to produce good tasting oranges. I like my oranges sweet and juicy. I'd like them without seeds but that's a little harder to do.

I planted an apple tree a few years ago. And it took a couple years to get a good amount of apples.

The only thing I have been able to find out about growing orange trees is that if you plant from a seedling it will take 2-15 years to get fruit.
