Peaches in sunny Crewe, cheshire

[veggiechicken]

Thanks Snadge In our last house, there were 2 outdoor Peregrine peach trees and they cropped well most years though they did get peach leaf curl. Since I knew nothing about growing peaches, I did nothing In spite of me they still peached!!

Apparently peaches are fully hardy, its just they flower at a time when its normally frosty and there are no pollinating insects about. Watch the rootball itself doesn't get frozen, even in a greenhouse. Mine is in a large pot burried up to its neck!
For some reason I got an apricot tree (a close relative) through the first year...........THEN it snuffed it!

i have only put mine indoors this year just gone,over the winter,prior to that it sat outside,in its tub,we had -13deg for weeks and it just seemed to shrug it off,so you never can tell how hardy a plant is...
