4 In 1 Fruit Cocktail Tree, 4 Different Fruits On One Plant
A 4-in-1 fruit cocktail tree is a fruit tree that produces four different types of fruit on a single plant. This is achieved through a process called grafting, in which different varieties of fruit buds are grafted onto a single rootstock.
The four types of fruit that are typically included on a 4-in-1 fruit cocktail tree can vary depending on the climate and region. However, some common combinations include:
- Peach, plum, nectarine, and apricot
- Apple, pear, cherry, and plum
- Citrus fruits such as orange, grapefruit, lemon, and lime
4-in-1 fruit cocktail trees are a great way to save space in your garden and to enjoy a variety of different fruits throughout the growing season. They are also relatively easy to care for and can be grown by gardeners of all skill levels.
Here are some tips for growing a 4-in-1 fruit cocktail tree:
- Plant in full sun and well-drained soil.
- Water regularly, especially during the first year after planting.
- Fertilize in the spring with a balanced fertilizer.
- Prune in the late winter or early spring to remove any dead or diseased branches and to shape the plant.
- Thin the fruit in the spring to ensure that the remaining fruit is large and flavorful.
- Harvest the fruit when it is ripe and juicy.
With proper care, your 4-in-1 fruit cocktail tree will provide you with years of enjoyment and delicious fruit.
Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring.
We cannot ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by the Department of Agriculture.
