Do you mean why would anyone grow fruit trees, or do you think HOA's don't stop you? Because in mine, they do.

I've lived in three different suburbs and I've never encountered there's any prohibition about planting trees.
My neighbor did bitch once because I planted like 20 fucking trees, turned the bitch into a forest, but they were sucking up so much water it was fucking with the lawns of houses on both sides of me.

You can't buy a home and not know it has an HOA. It's your own fault for not being able to grow fruit trees.

I'm not saying that I need to grow them, I'm just saying that some of them do restrict it. Although, for some reason our property came with some juneberry plants and no one has fined me.
