Choose a variety suited to your climate zone and plant in a sunny spot with good drainage. Peach trees require patience - you won't get fruit for 2-3 years - but biting into a sun-warmed peach from your own tree is worth the wait, and the spring blossoms are absolutely stunning.

โThe first thing I did โ plant a peach tree. Now I knew nothing about growing peaches, except that I liked them and finally lived somewhere with a growing season that was longer than 60 days. We went to the local ShopKo, bought a tree and put it in the ground. It grew. And grew. And quickly developed large, beautiful, fuzzy, sun-kissed orbs of deliciousness. But I still knew next to nothing about growing peaches and didnโt thin the tree enough. So branches broke, even as the tree grew larger.โ
โFrom my peaches which will come from the peach tree in my garden, I would rather than take peaches which come from the supermarket. I have also grown this peach tree from a seed and had to wait 4 years for it to grow fruits. But in my opinion it was worth the wait. The peaches are small but very tasty and sweet!โ
