Edibles in Containers - Fruit & Nut trees, small fruits and more
We have a great selection of potted fruit and nut trees, berries, grapes, figs and other small fruits. These containerized trees and shrubs will establish faster and bear fruit sooner than bare root trees. They are well rooted and will require less care than a bare root fruit tree. Many of the trees, set fruit this summer at the nursery.
Shop soon to avoid disappointment.

The WSU test gardens, our own experience and customer reports are our guides in selecting fruit varieties that are well suited to our Western Washington climate.
We always try to get larger size fruit trees than generally available so they will bear sooner.
Quantities are limited, so shop soon to get the best selection.
Pink Lemonade Blueberries
Container plants can be planted any time of year here in the Pacific Northwest.
Plant now and let mother nature water your trees for the next few months.
Don't worry about winter cold harming new plantings. Roots are well insulated in the ground and a three inch layer of mulch can provide added winter protection.
