Q.What Type Of White Peach And Why It Isn’t Bearing Fruit Well
I have a 15 year old white peach that has never born well — less than 8 peaches. I spray for peach leaf curl annually – twice the past 2 years before budding. I don’t water all that much during the growing season. It is full of blossoms this year. I fertilize with plant stakes though this year I’ve fertilized with Fox Super Bloom – heavier on phosphate to try and provoke more blooms. Appreciate any advice. Thank you.

They need a high nitrogen fertilizer regularly. Also, they need irrigation in summer.
