This is a great post. I especially appreciate the information about the roots. I've always been scared to barely even touch them for fear of harming the plant or tree. It's good to know they can be handled gently, and that it's better to do so than to plant a root-bound tree or plant! .-= Sherry´s last blog ..Pet Microchip And The Importance of Updating Your Info! =-.

We have had success with growing dwarf fruit trees (a lime and a lemon) in pots, but we live in San Diego so I am not sure about the Pacific Northwest. Good luck!

I love this city of Seattle-sponsored tree program. My neighbors and I just planted 29 trees donated from the city. My husband and I got 2 elms for the planting strip, and an apple tree for our yard. Last weekend every household came out to plant trees. It was really amazing.

Interesting post. I’m wondering about planting fruit trees in pots. As a renter, I don’t want to invest a lot of time and money planting trees in a property I’ll probably leave in 2-3 years. But I’d still like to grow more of our own fruit. Thoughts?
