Good day, there is a book called Backyard Fruits and Berries by Miranda Smith that I think you guys and gals might like especially if you have more than one variety of fruit. Amazon carries it and now is the best time to buy before it gets warmer. I got 2 of these books. I got mine years ago while living in Georgia. Here is the Amazon link and below is a picture of its cover. It also has information on grafting too. Enjoy!
