What our customers say

The trees were delivered promptly and they are the biggest, best looking mail-order trees I have seen in a long time. I will be ordering more in the future.

Website customer · email

The bare roots are by far the most established roots that I have ever seen on a bareroot tree.

Website customer · email

It looks like it is at least 7 feet tall. I certainly was not expecting it to be that big.

Lisa · email

Absolutely beautiful trees, especially compared to some of the other mail order bare roots I have gotten from other companies.

Website customer · email

An extra long box for taller trees is totally worth it to me. The trees are great.

William · email

The plants look beautiful and healthy. I was impressed by the size and strength of the 3-Cherry Tree.

Jose · email

Bare root was in great condition. A lot of branching and looks ready for a harvest this year. Best fruit trees in the business!

Daniel, Lapin cherry · website review

Very nice big tree, some limbs already blooming. I've planted it and it hasn't wilted. Arrived quickly and very well packaged.

Beulah, 4 in 1 Fruit Salad · website review

They have really healthy plants, all were larger than I expected. I for sure will be ordering more from them!

Billie · website review

Arrived quickly and in great shape, larger than I had expected too.

Ralph, red currant · website review

Thank you so much for these lovely hardy kiwis. They are much bigger than expected. Will be ordering from you again.

Irene · email

Boxed perfect. Shipped on time. Excellent quality stock. About the only thing you could do to improve my experience would be to fly out to Maine and plant them for me.

Don, Maine · email

I have been buying from your nursery for years, and hands down your citrus has survived the best out of all of my sources. I have never lost a plant in my colder climate.

Returning customer · email

The packaging for those kiwis was brilliant and by far the best packaging job out of any place I ordered from this year. Your Annas are tough as nails.

Travis · email

I received my pink currant in perfect condition. I am always amazed since I live in the southeast and they are in the northwest!

Susan · website review

All 3 bushes arrived looking healthy. It's been over a month and they are still going strong.

Description

The 3-in-1 Multi-Bud Fruit Salad Tree is one of the most fun and rewarding trees you can grow. By grafting multiple stone fruit varieties onto a single semi-dwarf tree, this unique planting delivers diversity, extended harvest windows, and efficient use of garden space—all from one trunk.

Expect a mix of peaches, nectarines, apricots, and plums with different flavors, textures, and ripening times throughout the season. Fruit Salad trees are perfect for home orchards, small yards, and curious growers who love variety without planting multiple trees.

Varieties Included

  • Polly White Peach – Sweet, low-acid white peach with tender flesh and classic dessert flavor.
  • Harken Peach – Reliable yellow peach with excellent balance, firmness, and rich peach flavor.
  • Harko Nectarine – Smooth-skinned nectarine with sweet, juicy flesh and bright aromatics.
  • Harcot Apricot – Early-ripening apricot known for productivity and classic apricot sweetness.
  • Superior Plum – Juicy, flavorful plum with excellent fresh-eating quality.

Each tree contains 3 of the 5 varieties listed above.
