I want fruit trees but I dont want to waste my time for money. I have read that Asian pears can handle wet ground pretty well. I am in Northern WV. My main purpose of planting here is to create a little screen for privacy from the road. I could do willow or poplar, but wanted to see if I could do fruit to add to my small orchard. Thanks for any info
