Can I grow fruit trees such as peach, apricot & plum in the palm springs area?

I'd say no. You would have to grow them in containers for starters. It would not be easy at all. Palm Springs is just too hot and dry to grow them in a landscape setting. Fruit trees such as these need a period of cold weather (temps in the 30's or below) for a time before they will produce flowers and fruit.

I'd look for fruit trees that can tolerate the conditions, like figs or date palms, or even a citrus tree. Good Luck!

I agree.. it's too hot.. they won't make it.
