View full detailsThese trees produce edible fruit and grow in tropical climates. In the US this mainly means they grow naturally in zones 8, 9, 10, and 11 which includes Florida, California and several southern states. Many of these trees can be grown in a pot in just about any growing zone and protected during the winter. Some can even be grown indoors year-round with the proper conditions.
Most Tropical Fruit trees require full sun and well-draining, fertile soil. Water these trees when the ground begins to dry. Feed trees in spring with a slow release fertilizer. If your tree grows naturally in a humid environment, as many tropical trees do, water them over the leaves to help provide extra humidity when conditions are dry.
Dwarf Tropical Fruit trees like Meyer Lemons and Key Limes are great for growing indoors. But they must have an optimal environment to thrive. They need full sun, so either a very bright spot in your home or plant lights must be used. These tropical trees love humidity so mist them daily or use a humidifier. Fig trees and the Arabica Coffee plant can also be grown indoors.
If you grow your fruit trees in pots, simply move them indoors during the winter. Move Citrus trees inside when temps are around 40 and Coffee plants inside when temperatures are around 50. Fig and Persimmon trees are more cold hardy and can be planted in the ground in zone 7. Plants in pots are less cold hardy than those in the ground and should get some extra protection in a garage or shed when growing in zone 7. When growing in colder climates they should be moved inside when temperatures begin to hit the freezing mark. Any tropical fruit trees planted in the ground can be winterized by adding a layer of mulch and watering deeply prior to heavy freezes. The trunk may be wrapped in burlap or the tree covered if temperatures will drop unusually low.
Absolutely! Small tropical fruit trees are perfect for pots. We recommend growing Fig trees like Celeste and Little Miss Figgy, Citrus trees like the Meyer Lemon and Key Lime, and Coffee Plants in pots. Make sure the container drains well and you water your fruit plants regularly. Fig trees and Citrus trees tend to be fast growing Tropical Fruit Trees, but planting them in containers will keep the growth rate more controlled.

Dig a hole about twice the width of the root ball and not quite as deep. Place your Fruit Tree evenly in the hole. The top of the root ball should be slightly higher than the existing soil line. Back-fill with the existing soil. Water deeply until the water begins to pool. Apply 1 to 2 inches of mulch in a mound to reduce watering needs, retain soil moisture, and reduce weeds.
