We are reading your articles with even more attention and affection lately, because the move to South Carolina and a tree farm is now in process. It's not Florida, but a lot of what you write will apply nicely.
Do you have any experience with growing wolfberries? I found an article that said they thrive in zones 6b to 9b.

your recent series on growing apples in the south prompted me to have one more try at growing apples in Central Texas. Bought three lovely specimens from the local Producers Co-op and got them planted under drip irrigation. Wasn't three days later that while checking the drip system I noted that all three trees were missing the bark from the first foot or so of their trunk!! Rabbits? or rats? Don't know what sort of critters you have in Florida, but you might want to get some sheet metal protection on your new orchard!! I ended up lopping off the top of one tree that had a single bud remaining on the scion below where it was girdled. The other two have about a half inch wide strip of bark remaining where it was protected by the stake so with a little luck they may survive until I can get some rootstock growing and try grafting the top growth.

Good luck with your orchard – I've been trying for four years and have yet to hold a single tree over a full year after planting. Still trying and hoping my luck will change. Your site has been very encouraging.
