If you have shallow, easily saturated soil then you should either do something to remedy it or move onto a different type of tree. It is most likely that attempting to grow an orange tree in these conditions would be disastrous. One of the more popular types of orange is the Washington Navel . It probably came about as a mutation of other oranges. 

Generally in an orchard, the trees are planted in a row, then pruned to be in a two dimensional shape. This is known as either a fan or an espalier shape. There is one main branch in the center that is completely vertical, then multiple branches that go off to the side. If the side branches are horizontal it is known as an espalier. 

You have to choose between the many sizes, fruit, and other attributes. The different sizes include: dwarf, semi-dwarf, and standard. Your choice can affect everything about your growing experience, including the amount of work you have to put in and the amount of rewards (fruit) you will obtain. Dwarf trees are ideal if you only have a limited amount of open space in your yard. 

These are less pleasant to eat, and are used more in cooking situations, including the production of jam or jelly. Cherry trees aren t just known for their delicious fruits. They are also popular for their beautiful flowers or blossoms. The clusters of flowers that appear in the spring are rather breathtaking, and have inspired many a song or poem. 

Pruning Your Trees If you have just entered the tree growing world, you have no doubt heard the term pruning tossed around by the more veteran growers. Pruning is the removal of dead or unneeded branches to encourage the growth of flowers. Usually a tree will end up devoting energy to branches that don t need it, while neglecting branches which are bearing more fruit. 

More fruit trees die in their beginning years due to poor care habits than any disease or pestilence. Therefore it is vital that you understand how to care for trees in a way that will ensure their immediate success as well as future good health. During the first stages of the tree s life, the roots, trunk, and branches have not yet fully developed to a self supporting strength.
