She lives with her family in Omata and is enjoying regenerating their 10acre property.<\/p><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Subtropical Habitat: <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Think humid, filtered light, frost-free, still air (little to no wind), moist to wet soil, with a deep litter of mulch to feed the shallow root systems of subtropicals.\u00a0 When Taranaki was forested most of our coast was subtropical and many valleys in urban New Plymouth can easily support these species.\u00a0 A north to north-west facing spot with lots of overhead foilage to buffer strong summer sun and protect from light frosts is ideal.\u00a0 While there is a variation in water requirements for subtropicals, such as a banana\u2019s need for plenty and an avocado\u2019s need for it to be drier, both can grow here, as can macadamia, pawpaw, cherimoya, tamarillo, casana, passionfruit, taro, pepino, and more!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Temperate Habitat:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Think cooler winters (some chill is required for many temperate fruit and nuts) and moist to very moist soils. Habitats with a \u00a0higher water table are suited to pears, persimmons, and medlars, while chestnuts prefer a less wet spot, and apples are pretty easy. Temperate fruit and nut trees are generally sited in the lowest, coolest, moistest parts of your site. Being deciduous, they must receive good summer sun, but winter shade is fine for most. \u00a0Other temperate edibles include plum, kiwifruit, apricot, cherries (try Stella and Tangshe in coastal Taranaki), hazels, gooseberries, and raspberries.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mediterranean Habitat:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is really a sub-group of the temperate habitat but these mediterranean varieties prefer or tolerate drier, bonier soils, with high summer heat needed for ripening. Mediterranean edibles include peach (on peach rootstock), walnut, grape, pinenut, and olive. \u00a0Olives need a really \u201cmean\u201d soil to do well in Taranaki, think of those Italian coastal sites with olives clinging to the crags.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Citrus Habitat:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Think all year sun, sheltered (but with good airflow), and moist (but not wet), with plenty of mulch\/compost over the shallow roots.\u00a0 Citrus will sit happily on the northern edge of a subtropical planting.\u00a0 In inland Taranaki, position citrus to the north of a building or wall where they can receive the stored heat in winter, which makes all the difference to sensitive citrus like limes.<\/p>\n<p>Rootstock can be a vital component of matching the right tree to the right spot and while we don\u2019t have time to go in depth here, note that by specifying the correct root stock you can often \u201cpush\u201d the boundaries of what can grow, where.\u00a0 Talk to your local nursery or invite one of the GreenBridge designers to assess your site.<\/p>\n<p>Nurseries that specialise in fruit and nuts will put out their catalogues shortly, so now is a good time to identify what you can grow, plan the layout of your fruit, nuts, and berries, and order for a late autumn plant.\u00a0 Did you know that the ideal time to plant fruit trees is \u201cin the fall\u201d? \u00a0Planting in late autumn allows the fruit tree to get a wee bit established before going dormant in winter, and then it will burst forth in spring with a strong foundation.<\/p>\n<p>Habitats and what you can grow in them is a complex interplay between soil moisture, solar access, wind effects, chilling, thermal mass effects, and length of season.\u00a0 Talk to your neighbours and see what they are growing successfully \u2013 and share some of your excess lemons with them at the same time!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_31027\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenbridge.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Pipino.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-31027\" class=\"wp-image-31027 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenbridge.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Pipino.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenbridge.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Pipino.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.greenbridge.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Pipino-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greenbridge.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Pipino-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.greenbridge.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Pipino-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/www.greenbridge.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Pipino-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.greenbridge.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Pipino-45x45.jpg 45w, https:\/\/www.greenbridge.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Pipino-36x36.jpg 36w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-31027\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">This happy pipino is growing in Kama\u2019s subtropical garden, next to a grey water soakage area, in Glen Park.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Identifying your site\u2019s \u201chabitats\u201d is the most important factor in matching the right fruit or nut tree to the right spot. \u00a0By ensuring the plant has as many of the favourable conditions it evolved with as possible, it\u2019s more likely to flourish and furnish you with a crop of fruit, nuts, or berries\u2026writes Bena Denton.
