Peach tree

Question

We have a peach tree (about 10 years old) and it has only produced flowers and peaches in about 3 or 4 years. This year we didn’t even get any flowers (we live in Golden Colorado and it was a wet and cool spring). Is there anything we can do to encourage the tree to flower, bud and produce peaches? Thanks so much!

Answer 1

I would have the soil tested to make sure that there is not a phosphorus deficiency in the soil. The trees need phosphorous to bloom and produce fruit. Here is more information: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/garden-how-to/soil-fertilizers/phosphorus-plant-growth.htm
