Concord is the traditional grape used to make grape jelly and juice. It produces bunches of large, blue-black, seeded grapes with a distinctive flavor. Though it is self-fertile, planting more than one vine is recommended for the best crop.<\/p>\n

\"raspberry\n<\/div>\n

Hardiness Zones 3\u20137<\/em> The September everbearing raspberry yields fruit twice per year \u2014one light crop in June, followed by a heavy crop in September. The medium-size, tart raspberries are excellent for freezing, preserves, pies, and fresh eating.<\/p>\n

Flordaking peaches are large and sweet, growing 2\u201d to 2.5\u201d in diameter. They require low chill hours, making them well-suited for warmer climates. And you\u2019ll enjoy additional beauty in the spring with small pink and white blooms.<\/p>\n

\"Pears\n<\/div>\n

Hardiness Zones 7\u20139<\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks to their low chill hour requirement, hood pears are another great choice for warm climates. Their fruit is greenish-yellow, crisp, and great for fresh eating or canning. The tree is partially self-fertile, but cross-pollination with Baldwin, Flordahome or pineapple pears will ensure a larger crop.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
