My Edibles: Dwarf Peach Trees VIC

Dwarf Peach (Seedling)

I had it in a pot for 3 years and two years ago I planted it in my front garden bed, which is west facing with plenty of sun.  It is thriving.  I have fruit this year.

I bought a dwarf tree thinking it would be a good idea for a suburban backyard. The dear little tree manages to produce a nice crop of fruits every year (though we have to fight off the earwigs) but I have learned NOT to buy dwarf trees. Horizontal space is the hardest to find in the backyard, bot vertical space. The ideal shape for a small garden tree is tall and thin. Like those 'Ballerina" apple trees. Not short and squat. The poor little tree just gets shaded by anything bigger that's nearby. In future I would buy a normal sized peach and just keep pruning it to size.

Thanks for this - you saved me from making a big mistake! Of course we want to go up, not out, when we have limited space!
