Unique, one-of-a-kind picks for your homescape.
Rare Fruit Trees delivered right to your door: Our Unusual Fruits aren't found at big box stores or other nurseries because they're truly one-of-a-kind and unique, often growing naturally in exotic, far-away locales. Now, you can have these special picks in your own backyard.
What are Unusual Fruits?
Typically tropical, Unusual Fruits are unique, one-of-a-kind selections that may not be native to your area. From the Carolina Reaper Pepper to the Paw Paw Tree, these exotic plants make your garden extraordinary.
How to Grow Unusual Fruits
Specific planting directions will depend on the variety you choose, but you should start with determining your proper growing zones (or plant indoors). The most important factors for your Unusual Fruits, like with most plants, are sunlight and watering needs. Again, tailored instructions will depend on the variety you choose.
But planting your Unusual Fruits is simple. Find an area with well-drained soil and the proper sunlight, or select a container large enough to accommodate the tree’s root ball, place your plant and backfill the soil. Finally, water the surrounding soil to settle your plant’s roots and mulch to conserve moisture in the area.
How to Pollinate Unusual Fruits
Most of our Unusual Fruits are self-fertile, but for those that need a cross-pollinator, we’ve recommended the best pollination partners on each specific product's page.
With indoor trees, hand pollination may be necessary. However, the process is easy: Simply transfer pollen from one bloom to the next on your tree by using a clean, dry, fine-tipped paintbrush and swirling pollen on each bloom’s center until the process is complete.
