#ProPlantTips for Care

Peach trees need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Morning sun is preferred, as the drying rays will help keep your tree healthy.

Air circulation is important, too. Don't plant Peach trees too close to structures or in a spot where air gets trapped.

They prefer fertile, well-drained soils. Improve poor drainage with an elevated or raised planting bed. Add additional soil in a mounded heap of soil 12 to 18 inches above the soil line and 3 feet wide.

Provide a moderate amount of water on a regular basis. It's a great idea to apply mulch over the top of the root system to a depth of 3 inches, and spread the mulch out 3 feet from the outside of the canopy.

You just can't beat a Fay Elberta peach for productivity and depth of flavor. Order yours today!
