I have a small barren patch in my backyard that's not being used. I would like to plant some type of fruit there. It's about 15 square feet of space. Any suggestions anyone?
Best to plant them in winter, when they're dormant.Okay, that sounds like a plan. I guess I'll be planting berries next spring. Thanks for the good advice. I'll let you know how it goes.
Remember, with strawberries, you can plant "up". You create a pyramid type raised bed (you can find them in gardening supply catalogs) and that way they don't take up as much ground space. Also, they're easier to weed and pick as you don't have to bend over quite as much.Okay, that sounds like a plan. I guess I'll be planting berries next spring. Thanks for the good advice.

It's like moving it in its sleep, so you don't disturb it.I'm a gardening newbie, so excuse the dumb question, but why would you plant when it's dormant?
