I am a sixteen year old that has a dream to one day open (and own) a plant nursery. I am interested in plant breeding and hope to release varieties that have increased disease resistance, flavor, and ability to grow in less than ideal soils.

I still need to make a database for all
My current plants:

Apples , 30-40 ish

Pears, about ±30 varieties (Asian and European).

Peaches, 2 redhavens and a few others grafted in spring (2026)

Plums, wild plums, improved Chickasaw, and Japanese types.

Grapes, concord and Munson hybrids.

Pawpaw, wild and two seedlings grown from online that produce big, tasty fruit.

Elaeagantes, two guoumi and many feral autumn olive.

Walnut family, many wild black walnuts some with very large nuts others the size of a dollar coin. A few hickory (shellbark, shagbark, and pignut) scattered about. I ordered butternut, Persian walnut, and pecan seeds to grow in 2026

Chestnut, 3 Chinese planted in 2022

Hazelnut/filbert, seeds for 2026.

Persimmon, seedlings from the legendary Hershey orchard.

Fig,
10 ± varieties from cutting

Ribes, a few currents, jostaberry, and gooseberry.

Elderberry, few varieties plus natives

Opuntia, eastern prickly pear (yellow with red center type), Montana prickly pear (don’t know the flower color), dune prickly pear (from South Carolina)

Many other plants but listing them would take too much time.
