Best planting material for fruit trees?

Hi All, I just ordered several bare root fruit trees (2 apple, peach, plum, apricot) to be planted in January in the Phoenix area. These trees are going in an area of the yard that had a large empty koi pond when we moved in. After a little work it's now a large hole around 12" deep. So my question is, what's the best thing to put in the hole to plant the trees in? Native dirt, good compost, soil, sand, etc. I've done much research but it seems like there are so many options. Cost doesn't matter a whole lot since I hope to have these trees for many many years and want to give them the best life! Thanks for any suggestions.
