Oh nice, i'm gonna ask about a few of your trees-

Pomegranate - what size does a dwarf and a full size become? We've been here almost a year and i still don't know

Ours is shorter than my height, and has fruited already since we've been here.

Kumquat - can it be mistaken for a young mandarin plant? We've had no fruit on this plant, it's only a couple of feet high and i certainly know it's a citrus.

Cherry - do find you have enough fruit on it, i've read that alot of people have trouble getting a nice full crop.

Almond - can you also mistake them for apricots , when do the almonds become ready to eat?

I don't have any of the other fruits you listed but i know how the rest of what we have goes

We have a giant Black Walnut in the back corner of our yard and it shades 2/3 of the yard in the summer. I love it.

There's also a little Hybrid Mulberry tree in the front yard...it's a weird little tree, about 6 ft tall, looks like a mulberry but was apparently crossed with a pussywillow tree so it's this cute little umbrella that has big fuzzy pussywillows in the spring.

There's also a nice hedge of Cedars, but they actually belong to our neighbours.

I have 4 huge Plumeria trees, that were only 6 inches tall when I planted them about 6 years ago, and now they are huge!!! Well over my head. And that is after being trimmed back about 2 years ago to a stub! They are so beautiful, and their smell is intoxicating!!!!

Dragoriana,

Where I live, they call it, "Piney Woods of Texas" because we have tons of
Pine Tress. The pines in my yard are at the very least 75 ft tall. We also have very large Oaks.
