Landscape Uses and Maintenance of Peach Fruit Trees

Peachy keen? The Peach Fruit Trees 3-4' will make peaches your new favorite fruit, if it isn’t already!

These trees are high maintenance and need substantial care, so be ready to commit and give this tree TLC through the seasons. They have light pink to white flowers that bloom in spring.

Give this tree a location that has full sun.

Plant in a well draining area in sandy to loamy soil. Avoid planting them in heavy clay or compacted soil.

Thin out trees in very late winter or very early spring to decrease overall fruit count and have better fruit size. It is better to harvest less fruits that are high quality, than to have many low quality fruits and be disappointed by the flavor or size.

Give your trees a balanced fertilizer in spring to ensure optimal health.

Water regularly and very thoroughly when you first bring this tree home until well established and then let Mother Nature do her job. This tree will need plenty of consistent watering especially during drought.  Remember, the insides of your juicy peaches are made up of mostly water.

This tree is not disease or pest resistant, so watch for signs of fungal or pest presence and treat accordingly. Watch closely for signs of peach tree borer including frass and breaks in the bark.

Deer resistant.

Noteworthy Characteristics of Peach Fruit Trees

Should I get one or two? The Peach Fruit Tree 3-4' is self pollinating, so you can plant one tree and still have fruit to harvest. Plant one tree of each of your favorite varieties to grow your own orchard and enjoy fresh fruit, without the worry about the last time pesticides were used before harvest.

How to Grow and Care for Fruit Trees

Fruit trees are a rewarding addition to any landscape, offering fragrant blossoms in spring and fresh, homegrown harvests in summer or fall. Popular varieties like apple, peach, pear, and plum thrive in full sun and well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Choose trees suited to your USDA zone, and plant in early spring or fall for the best root development.

Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and deep enough so the root flare sits just above the soil line. Backfill with native soil, water deeply, and apply mulch around the base—keeping it a few inches from the trunk—to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Water regularly during the first growing season, especially during dry spells.

Prune annually to shape the tree, improve air circulation, and boost fruit production. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced or fruit-specific fertilizer. With proper planting, seasonal care, and a little patience, fruit trees will reward you with beauty, shade, and bountiful harvests year after year.
