Nick is my first nursery that started my fruit tree obsession 😍 you need to visit Andy in St. Cloud he has a huge East Indian mango tree, along with big Soursop tree. These guys are nailing growing tropical trees in subtropical environments

I started all my mango trees and many other fruit trees from Nick. He'll tell you what you can grow and what you cannot. I have mango trees fruiting now...I have persimmon, lemon, lime, pomelo, various banana trees and pineapple. AND I love my welcome from Bleu

I can’t stop watching your videos. I’m planning on filling my tiny 9B yard with espalier tropical trees. Any examples of that here in FL would be awesome.

Nick's Edibles has fantastic selections and prices!!! Everything I've bought from him has done very well. He is super knowledgeable too!

Great video! My wife and I are moving to Inverness and Nick can be a great resource for us finding the right plants to fit the climate. Keep up the good work and spreading the word about growing your own food!

I live near downtown Orlando. Zone 9 if you believe the USDA's 2012 zone map. Personally, I believe I am already zone 10, and I think when the new zone map is published, the zones will have migrated far to the north. It got down to 31°C for two nights last year for a couple of hours, but that is the first freeze we've had in many years. I have mango (3 varieties), avocado (3 varieties), macadamia, carambola, custard apple, jaboticaba (3 varieties), achachairu, lemondrop mangosteen, persimmon (2 varieties), peach, white sapote, pomegranate, jackfruit-chempedek hybrid, ackee, acerola, lychee, longan, banana, papaya, olive, pineapple, peanutbutter fruit, pitangatuba, etc. None of those trees were damaged by cold, but I had some coffee trees that were killed by 31° temps.
