Best fruit bearing trees in Georgia?

[calebp]

Hey folks,

Moving in a few weeks and going to have the space to do some gardening and planting. Curious what trees that bare fruit grow in ga. My grandparents live in waycross and always had grapes and figs but not sure if those grow good up here. Looking at a honey crisp tree at the moment as they are $3 a lb and the best apple ever.

Thanks for your help guys!
Caleb

Over the years , I've had peaches, Granny Smith and Red Delicious apples, Red Plums and Cherries all do well .

My blueberries are the easiest fruit I grow. Peaches need to b sprayed regularly. I also enjoy my muscadines. Order plants from isons.com

Ohh yeah, not so much a tree but, Muscadines are amazing! Make a mighty fine homemade wine! Especially, if you let it sit a year or two! Yum!!

I have 2 apple trees started. Powder blue blueberry is doing well. I can't grow tomatoes for anything!

How the hell do you grow blueberries? I've got two bushes and the damn birds beat me to the berries every year.

Apples, Peaches and Blueberries will do the best. With fruit trees the key is going to be a good spray schedule. UGA has a great schedule for every tree out there. We like fruit bugs like fruit everything like fruit. Spray, spray, spray
