Fast Fruits

    11 responses

justjuice starts with ...
I thought it might be useful to have a list of "fast fruit" in one place. I'm impatient, and after just buying a new house I want to get fruit ASAP, while I'm waiting for the standard 5 years for "normal" fruit to bear. So far I've found the following, but if anyone has experience with fast fruiters please add it here. (I would define a fast fruiter as a fruiting plant that produces in less than 3 years), Thanks!

Babaco
Banana
Berry fruits
Cape gooseberry
Midyim berry
Passionfruit
Pawpaw
Pepino
Tamarillo

A few i can think of:

-Guava
-Peanut Butter Fruit
-Panama Berry
-Atherton raspberry
-Most grafted fruit trees should fruit within 3 years from planting

From my experience grafted stone fruit (eg peaches & nectarines) planted in winter/early spring should produce a tiny crop straight away then at least 100 fruits the next year.

Hi All the above and also my avocados (Hass and Fuetre) had fruit after 2.5 years in the ground, this is their 2nd year fruiting and they have hundreds of fruit. Like Scott, our apricots and peaches bore in their 2nd year.
Passionfruit are quick too

Hi all...my Wampees are flowering but they were only planted in Aug this year...are these trees like others in that I should remove the flowers for the first 1-2yrs?
I wasn't expecting them to be so precocious!?

Hi Amanda,
Can you upload photos of your Wampi tree flowering ? I have some white buds on my tree but I'm not sure if it's flowers or just new leave shoots.

Hi Michael - sorry have been away - but while I was away the hot easterlies blew the #@@* out of my garden and the flowers have fallen off!? there is just a naked stalk left. I hope this is not going to be a future problem for the tree producing fruit.
I will be sure to take a pic for u if they produce anymore tho'
I would just leave them and see what happens Michael - if they turn out t be flowrs then you can snip them off if u want.
