Here's a really great ranked list of fruit for "backyard gardens" at
www.sas.upenn.edu/~dailey/volkfruit.htm
"Ratings based on freedom from disease, insects, wildlife, etc. and
on fruit quality representing mostly my personal experience plus
input from others, particularly organic growers. We are in Berks
County, PA, which is in zone 6. "
(He puts pawpaw near the top of the list, but one of the growers here
said it takes 15 years to fruit -- and is worth it.)
The home page at
http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~dailey/Main.htm
includes a list of resources.
