Care Guide

Elberta Peach Tree China
Plant Care
  • Thrives in full sun, needing at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight daily to produce abundant fruit. Tolerates some light shade, but excessive shading can lead to weak growth, fewer blossoms, and reduced fruit yield. Suited for hardiness zones 4-10, depending on the species.
  • Water newly planted trees weekly, providing 1-2 inches of water. Once established, reduce watering frequency but ensure deep watering when you do water, especially during fruit development and dry periods.
  • There are two main types of peaches: clingstone, where the flesh clings to the pit, and freestone, where the flesh easily separates from the pit, making them popular for different culinary uses.
