I have an apple, two cherries, a pomegranate and two satsumas.  I would say the Satsumas are the easiest, than the pomegranate.  Satsumas are sweet and the rind peels of easy!  4951

Neighbor's lemon tree does well every year. We had a fruit tree once, had to take it down because it attracted bees (allergic) and the fallen fruit would get nasty. 4951

If you really want a fruit tree that will do well year after year and will produce a great fruit get yourself a Meyer Lemon tree. It will produce an amazing amount of lemons and they taste amazing. 4951

I've heard banana trees grow like weeds and you couldn't kill them if you tried.
 
@mgw300e: I killed a banana tree in my backyard.  My DH had fun chopping it down with his Highlander sword!  Then i used a hatchet to finish the job.  Drilled holes in it and poured Roundup Concentrate in the holes.  Covered the stump with a black trash bag and covered it with lots of garden rocks.  It never came back.  The next year there was nothing left of it when i removed the plastic.

@N+T: jeez! I'm surprised you didn't have a priest perform an exorcism and then drive a stake through its heart and shoot it with a silver bullet!

Figs do very goodLoquats or mexican plums or chinese plums (all 3 names are common around here)citrus of the proper variety.Peaches and nectarinesNOTE  Loquats flower in Nov/Dec and offer a strong very nice smell in early winter. Fruit is usually ready about this time of year.Figs depending on variety can give you one or two crops a year.Citrus is usually a nov-jan fruit 4951

NOT a plum-my parents had 5 plum trees in Ohio that produced more fruit than we could eat-the stench of rotting plums was awful 4951
