Many people demotivate and end up abandoning their gardens. So they give them to somebody in the waiting list (as I was for one and a half year). The next person may not want that fruit tree and it's a shame to put it down... So they forbid it right from the beginning.

You can of course plant them in a pot, but I'm not sure they would grow that much... Strawberry and raspberry are fine, I think!

I'm happy you're excited about it! Did you consider getting a bit of land yourself as well?
