Fruit trees?
I just moved into a new house on Lake Deaton and am enjoying landscaping my yard. I was quite surprised here that there are so few citrus trees in The Villages. I understand that this used to be a huge citrus growing area (the name "Fruitland" is an obvious indicator). So I have planted several orange trees to see what happens. I realize the occasional freezes pose a risk, but what other reasons keep the number of citrus trees so low? Advice needed please.
