What can I grow in Iowa?
I am a new gardener just starting to take control of my yard (which prior to now had been put into disarray by my husband before I lived here) and I don't have a whole lot growing. I have a bed with strawberries growing in it, some plants, flowers, and that is about it. I do have some flowering trees in the front but I would love to grow a fruit bearing tree. Is there anything besides apple, crab apple, similar to that that I could try in my climate? The sunniest area in my yard is in the front but I already have two trees out there. I have a huge tree in my backyard but I get sun and shade back there. Don't know if that matters much or not. Any help would be great!
