Did you grow all of it or buy it?  If you grew it, I am very jealous.

What apples produce fruit where oranges grow?

>What apples produce fruit where oranges grow?

The following is specific to the state of Florida, U.S.A.; USDA
hardiness zones 9-10. North-Central and Central Florida are the
northernmost range of commercial citrus production and, until the
mid-1980's, was a highly productive and fruitful region. From the late
1960's, into the mid-1970's several attempts were made to establish
"Israeli" oranges commercially in Central and West-Central Florida as
far south as Hernando County (Brooksville). Those commercial attempts
are now moribund, as is the greater part of citrus farming within those
regions. However, it is not uncommon to see apples and citrus grown
together domestically as "dooryard" fruit. Apple trees and citrus trees
are widely available in nurseries throughout the region.

I suggest that unless you want to reward land theft and genocide, you
should boycott anything Zionist (Israeli).

Using Google I queried "nursery, apple tree varieties,  Arizona ". One
of the results
washttp://ag.arizona.edu/pubs/garden/mg/fruit/planting.html

Thinking that may be too dry I queried "nursery, apple tree varieties,  
Alabama". One of the results was
http://www.aces.edu/pubs/docs/A/ANR-1138/

Dry or humid one or the other should have an apple for you.

Happy crunching.

    Well, personally, I do but for some reason I believed this NG
relevant to home gardening and not to bigoted socio-political claptrap.
