Questions About Peach Trees

    The fact that your tree has not grown in 1 year is concerning.

    I would look to the planting procedure and the soil that your tree is planted in.
    It is crucial for the planting hole to be dug large enough for the roots.
    Well draining soil is very important.

    It may be time for you to dig the tree up and check the roots.
    Healthy roots should be white and firm. Dead roots are dark, black and soft.
    Depending on the findings you can either replant or replace the tree.

    Here are some articles to refresh you on the care requirements.

    There is little that can be done in spring with regards to spraying for Leaf Curl.
    Thinning the fruit load can help.
    The articles below have more information on control of Leaf Curl and application of treatment methods.

    The growth is most likely growing from the root stock.
    What that particular root stock was and what it may produce are unknowns.

    If you have the space and are curious, you certainly can leave it to grow.

    I myself lost 2 Pear Trees to cold several years ago, I left the root stock to grow and they bloom each year and help act as pollinators for my other Pear Trees. They have not produced fruit!

    Sounds like your tree might be suffering from brown rot fungus or peach scab.
