Q. Are there any fruit, nut, fig, or olive trees that I
can grow in North Las Vegas without using pesticides?
A. Very few fruit trees require pesticides as a general
rule. Most of the fruit at the orchard is grown without pesticides. I talk
about them because they sometimes do occur. You will still get good production
from apricots, peaches, plums, apples, pears, almonds, pistachios, pomegranates
and figs.
There are occasionally pests that do get in all of them.
