Leaves on Newly Planted Peach Trees Turning Yellow

Question

We planted two peach trees in March and they looked great until a few days ago when leaves started turning yellow. We have had excessive rain lately. We didn’t put any fertilizer on them. Why are they turning yellow?

Answer 1

If the soil they are in has been saturated with water for a long time, they may have root rot. This article will help with that:
