Peaches ...

Lovely, you can't beat English peaches :o)

They are much sweeter and juicer Ph .I haven't as many this year ...

Aren't you the lucky one,Amy? they look lovely..:o)

Thanks Sandra , I'm not very good at pruning it properly it's a bit hit and miss , I need lessons ,Help !!

Oooh I'd love to grow peaches, how do you escape peach leaf curl and insect damage?:-)

Wow Amy ....they look great.

Bg I have a canopy ( it's actually a glass shower door ) over the tree and wood slats at the sides which helps to stop peach leaf curl confining the tree to the one space ,it works well last year I had 80 peaches ! Thanks Linda :o)

I love peaches.

Lucky you.... :))

Thanks all ,they are usually ripe when the grandchildren come down here for their holiday but they came early this year so will miss them !

Luverly grub! Well done you!

Have you got the tree outside Amy or in greenhouse? They look super!!

80 peaches! ....and not one sent my way:-(

Thanks everyone , I've eaten my first one today it was very sweet and juicy , sorry Bg :o( .. The tree is planted against a 7 ft tall half brick half board fence outside Shirl we have a shower door canopy above it which stops it from getting leaf peach curl and wooden slats down each side about 18 inches wide it looks as if it's contained in it's own mini house , when we have frosts in the winter I pull fleece down over the entire front to protect it ...

Did anyone tell you what a peach you are BA?

Well, you have found the right conditions for it obviously Amy, it looks marvellous.

It's does well Shirl , I keep it pruned to the size of the frame but would feel much happier to have expert guidance on the pruning I'm a bit secateur happy with it and unsure of what I'm doing :o(

I wouldn't worry, you seem to be doing it right whatever the experts say!! I get a bit secateurs happy with things once I start!!

:o)) It's a good job I'm not a hairdresser ,they would go out scalped !!

Yum!

:o))) I like the hairdresser bit!! :)))
