Peach Trees

Question

Is it ok to plant an evergreen or pine tree near my peach tree? Thanks.

Answer 1

You can plant them near each other, but I would not plant them too close. Pine trees tend to drink up all the water in their surrounding areas, which means the peach tree would have to compete with it for water. Plus, pine trees tend to grow larger and faster than peach trees, and the pine tree could eventually block light to the peach tree if they are planted too close.
