The Dutch grew apples, peaches, pears, and quince. Quince required special temperatures. Apples were most productive. Many of these plants were grafted into multiple branches, multiple fruits. The grapes the Dutch brought here from Europe could only make it due to the innovation of a Dutch farmer made about 1620--grafting. He learned that grafting European shoots to an American vine rootbase kept it alive. Otherwise, new world fungi did it in.
