Hello fellow earthroamers:)
I´m 24 and currently traveling Europe and about to finish my bachelor degree. It doesnt seem like I will settle in the next few years, but I for sure want to have a place to call home later and create a permaculture garden.
My question is, if you think that it would be good idea to buy some fruit and nut trees now and place them in my mothers garden so they can grow. I would love to have a variety of trees in the future, but since it take many years for them to produce relevant harvests, i was thinking about buying them small for a cheaper price and then transporting them to my garden, when I´m ready.
I´m not really sure, if a safe transport would be possible and if that would put too much stress on the trees. Its quite possible that they would have to withstand a 10 hour + travel until they could be planted in the ground again.
If my idea does make any sense at all, i was also wondering, if it would be better to place them in large pots to mature, so travel would be easier, or to place them directly in the ground so they can grow a bigger root ball.
What do you guys think?
