Planting a fruit tree or moving to a home with an established tree is one of my favorite daydreams! Are there lots of "issues" with growing oranges or grapefruit trees? Seems like all of the apple trees I have known in the Midwest always ended up with worms or some other problem and weren't the best fruit bearers. I think my grandfather had a plum that caused him problems, too. Just wondering if the citrus trees required a lot of maintainence also.
