[QUOTE="Lycanthrope, post: 156032, member: 562"] I dont know how big your yard is but Id recommend at least one apple tree. Cherry bushes, probably carmine jewel (tart but very productive, great for sauces, jellies and pies) and juliet(sweeter and good for fresh eating). Raspberry, both my polka and caroline are very productive, caroline have larger berries but polka is the best yielder, both are primocane meaning I chop them to the ground every fall. Because of SWD you will need to spray raspberries. Lots of new varieties of honeyberry coming out lately but Id recommend aurora for sure. Borealis isnt worth bothering with and I dug mine out last fall. I planted 5 new varieties last summer/fall so wont know much about them for a couple years. Grapes are fun but require some maintenance and a trellis. My blueberries are an ongoing struggle. They are in containers buried in the ground but keeping the PH in the right range is difficult, thinking about digging them out and replacing them with more honeyberry, well see how they look this spring...
