Marcia starts with ... Down the back of our yard we have a large area that I would love to use to grow edibles, especially fruit trees, but whenever it rains heavily, the area floods. Whatever I plant must be able to put up with wet feet in this environment. Does anyone have any suggestions. I know that taro thrived down there, but I don't eat it, so it's not much use for me. | About the Author Marcia2 Sydney (coastal) 15th June 2011 1:45pm #UserID: 5432 Posts: 1 View All Marcia2's Edible Fruit Trees |

Boris Spasky says... All the fruit trees mentioned so far are novelty/bush tucker and mostly inedible. The word edible seems to have been overlooked in the suggestions. Guarana? Are you for real fruitist? The berry is hard and very bitter. You'll spit it out if you don't gag first. If you like to waste time and money and then spit out the results, then there are plenty of suggestions above. My six pence worth: construct a raised bed and provided you get enough sun, you can grow most edible fruit that you'll actually eat. | About the Author Boris Spasky 17th October 2012 9:43pm #UserID: 7085 Posts: 184 View All Boris Spasky's Edible Fruit Trees |

heddysue says... Hi Everyone, persimmon, jack fruit, canistel, mulberry, banana and pepino will all handle wet feet for a fair while, ours do, we have a seasonal swamp and in wet years it's continually wet and these trees are thriving asimina triloba will grow in shade of others in permanent wet area. Does anyone know if young berry will handle wet feet? thanks | About the Author heddysue Kyogle 22nd January 2013 3:49pm #UserID: 6211 Posts: 17 View All heddysue's Edible Fruit Trees |
