I have two groups of banana plants. When one produces a stalk of bananas then I have so many I cannot eat them all. I give them away to my neighbors. Same with a peach tree and a mango tree. They produce so much at once that I have to give most away.

Here in Florida 60 miles south of Tampa I have a tree that produces small fruits that taste like apricots.

Unfortunately, the squirrels have become aware of it.

I don’t see it listed here:

That list seems suitable for zone 9 Florida.

I have two other plants that are supposed to produce fruit but haven’t.

I think one is a Bermuda (Surinam) cherry.

One of my former neighbors had a fig tree. My two fig ‘trees’ died.
