There are the classic fruits commonly seen in gardens, such as apples, pears, and raspberries. However, there are also unique and occasionally unknown fruits that are rarely seen, which I believe is a pity. These are the plants I want to highlight here as I explore some of the more unusual fruits to grow at home.
I grew many different fruits during my years as a professional kitchen gardener, ranging from the usual choices to some more exotic ones (well, they were exotic for the northern regions of the UK). As fall is an ideal time to plant fruit trees and soft fruit bushes, it seems a perfect opportunity to look at some unique fruit trees and quirky soft fruits.
