Fully grown Fruit Trees
Hi I live in Islamabad and am looking for fully grown fruit trees for my yard.
Cant wait 3 years for them to get ready. I heard they are available in Patokki near lahore fully grown. Can someone confirm this so its not a wasted drive down there.
Im looking for
1. Apple Trees
2. Pear
3. Plum
4. Fig
5. Lichi
6. Kinno
7. Grape fruit
8. Malta
9. Some mango that does well here
10. falsa
and almost any other fruit tree i can get my hands onto. Transportation will be expensive but im willing to cough up the cash if they all give fruit next season.
Also im willing to travel far and wide, KPK and Punjab so can someone please let me know where i can find them ? Would be much appreciated.

Re: Fully grown Fruit Trees
Travel to NARC, nearest to u. Some of the ppl of far n wide placed also frequent NARC, so...
Buy grafted fruit plants. They will fruit rightaway. No waiting required.
Remember most fruit trees bear fruit for a max of 10-15 years but with grafting u can continue the fruiting. You ll learn that in time...

Re: Fully grown Fruit Trees
Ive been there, have a whole bunch of their trees. The avacadoes take 6 years to mature. Mine are One and a half years old right now and still babies. Pear and plum and other will also take 3 years. They dont have any big fully grown trees.

You ll learn that in time..But not as fast as Talha.
Mango trees planted by my great grand father over a century old were still fruiting at Thokar Multan road till replacement by concrete (urbanisation) 15 years ago.

Olive trees can bear fruits for over a century but most fruit trees don't have that long a life

Re: Fully grown Fruit Trees
Talha the googler, Filtering before commitment is very important. We also have a long experience of most fruiting trees, we were growing them before the Americans.
