How the heck do you grow eight different fruits on a single tree? With an asexual plant propagation technique known as grafting. Typically grafting is used for the commercial production of trees and shrubs, however The Fruit Salad Tree Company utilized this technique to create the ultimate buffet of fruit super tree!
The Fruit Salad Tree was created as a cost effective means to grow multiple species of fruit. Variations of the tree have been designed for all climate types. Here the are four different types of Fruit Salad Trees:
Stonefruit which grows peaches, plums, nectarines, apricots and peachcots
Citrus which grows a winter and summer orange, mandarins, lemons, limes, grapefruits, tangelos and pomelos
Multi-nashi fruit only
Cool, I want one! It's like Futurama!

There has only been one seedless orange tree (navel oranges) in the world. All the seedless oranges originated from grafts from that single mutant tree.
(now they're from grafts - created from grafts - created from grafts - ad naueseum)
