Description

Peaches are warm-loving stone fruit trees. In the DACH region they perform best on south-facing walls or terraces — bark cracking disease is the biggest concern.

Care instructions

Full sun, sheltered location. To prevent bark cracking, spray buds with iron sulfate solution from February. Perform thinning cut in February/March.
