Mike Grimes starts with ... Can anyone suggest what stone fruit are best suited to the Orange area. I am at Sopringside so our temperature in winter is usually about 8-9 deg less than Orange as we at 1800M. We get the full 4 seasons and heavy snow on an average of 6 days in winter. Rich soil and plenty of water. I have about1.5 acres spare that I want to dedicate to this orchard. | About the Author Mike41 Springside(Orange) 18th November 2012 12:50pm #UserID: 7435 Posts: 4 View All Mike41's Edible Fruit Trees |

Xiem says... http://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/agriculture/horticulture/stone-fruit Mike have you thought about talking to the horticulture division of the NSW dept of Primary Industry? (See above) This is the kind of thing that they should be able to help with. Some of their information is very good and while it is directed towards commercial growing their advice would apply to all growers. | About the Author Diego 21st November 2012 10:23am #UserID: 4715 Posts: 283 View All Diego's Edible Fruit Trees |

rickywatson1 says... I have found a device known as Hornet determines the salinity & temperature of the soil. So you can easily check temperature & water capacity required for Orchard.
