Give me a real peson telling me this and I'll listen. Thumbs down for me.
At least put in sections to the video for each bush.
So I planted both fruit trees and bushes. Everything I grow has to be in containers. I'm not allowed to plant in the landlords ground 😞 but yes, my bushes produce fruit every year. My apple, orange, pear trees haven't produced yet but my peach tree finally has fruit this year. I'm so excited. My blueberries, strawberries, fig and elderberry bushes started producing the first year. They produce more every year. Don't just ignore the fruit trees because you have to wait a few years. Be smart and plant them all and enjoy the fruit bushes while waiting on the trees. God bless
