Need advice in selecting fruit trees

11 years ago

I live in New York, zone 5b. But I have a heated greenhouse facing south (hot, dry with full sun in winter). I want to grow some fruit trees in containers. But not sure whether I can actually get fruits. I know that some trees are not self-fertile. And some flower in dead of winter when there are no pollinators in the greenhouse. I have a Carrie mango in a 25 gallon pot that has been flowering since February but hasn't set any fruit.

Do any of you living in the north have had success in growing the following fruit trees in containers and indoors?

Malphigia glabra (Barbados Cherry)

Muntingia calabura (Jamaica Cherry)

Manilkara zapota "Makok" ( I heard it is sweeter than Silas Woods)

Annona squamosa "Kampong Mauve"


Thanks
