Orange - Trovita
The Trovita Orange is a widely adaptable thin skinned orange, which develops excellent flavor without the heat required by other varieties. It also is able to produce heavy crops of fruit in desert heat. Trovita is ideal for fresh-squeezed orange juice, and it is very sweet with few seeds. It ripens in spring, and also blooms in spring, so you may have blooms and fruit at the same time! This is the only orange that is suitable for indoor culture. It will develop a sweet flavor without a lot of heat. The tree is vigorous and upright in growth. It prefers full sun, fertile, but well drained soil, and moderate water. Don't go through another growing season without one of your own! You can grow citrus trees in almost any type of pot, but ceramic or clay is usually recommended; good drainage is essential.

Even the leaves are often used as an essential ingredient for flavoring many Asian dishes such as soups, curries and fish. This dwarf citrus tree, reaching up to 5 feet tall, can be grown outdoors year round in zones 9-10, but it is best suited for indoors. The Kaffir Lime tree thrives in potted environments and does well when grown on the patio or deck; in colder climates it needs to be brought indoors during winter. Its container needs to provide adequate drainage, and it prefers full sun in moist soil. This tree is prone to root rot if kept too wet, so it is best to allow the soil to dry out some between waterings. If grown indoors, keep near a sunny window.

Oro Blanco is Spanish for white gold.

Blueberry - Aurora - DetailsBlueberry - Aurora - Sale Price: $51.35
Blueberry - Aurora, Vaccinium corymbosum 'Aurora', will provide large grapelike clusters of fresh and sweetly flavored blue berries in mid-August into September, extending the season well into the fall! Aurora blueberry is an easy to grow delicious berry that is great for edible landscaping. This rounded shrub will produce more berries if a different variety is nearby for cross-pollination, but is self-pollinating. Its shallow root system makes regular irrigation a necessity and mulching is beneficial to conserve moisture. Aurora is resistant to cracking and stores well. Blueberries do tend to overbear so thinning is needed to promote larger fruit. Popular for their fruit, compact size and brilliant fall colors of orange and red. The berries sweeten as they hang on the bush, so don't pick too early!

Raspberry - Latham - DetailsRaspberry - Latham - Sale Price: $42.75
The Latham Raspberry, 'Rubus 'Latham', is a popular red raspberry that produces large crops of big juicy berries. It makes a delicious jam or a dessert as well as for fresh eating. Latham is a sure cropper for home use as this variety starts ripening in July and continues to ripen over a long period of time. Latham is a hardy, older cultivar bearing somewhat in fall and is suitable for inter-mountain regions. This raspberry has become a standard in early-bearing garden and pick-your-own operations. The berries are versatile and can be used as fresh fruit, in preserves, or in pies and pastries. Raspberries may be grown successfully at an elevation as high as 7,000 feet. They do best in full sun on non-alkaline, fertile loam soil. However, they may be grown in partial shade or under other environmental constraints. Natural protection against strong winter winds are provided in some valleys, but in other areas it is necessary to provide artificial protection during winter months. Although a well-drained soil is essential for success, a sandy soil will need to have plenty of organic matter incorporated in preparation. Raspberries need a plentiful supply of moisture throughout the growing season. Raspberries take little space and live for years. Birds also love the fruit, so you may have to share the harvest!
