*I would like to plant a peach tree
*You can grow a peach tree from a seed or you can buy preferably a one year old tree from a nursery
*Peaches need a lot of sun and should be located in good air flow
*it is best to plant peaches in early winter, i found that this is good because it gives the roots time to establish and it will be able to make it through the new spring growth.
*Peach trees require a constant supply of water
*if you are planting the one year old tree there is a certain way you have to do it, you have to make sure you plant it with the bud onion sticking about one inch above the soil, because if you plant it to deep the plant can be injured or killed.
*I found that you should prepare the soil one or two seasons before planting, this gives you enough time to test the pH of the soil and determine the adjustment that must be mad to have thew proper amount of nutrients and organic material.
*A peach tree requires sandy soil that is rich in organic materials
*It is recommended that materials such as compost, manure, grass clippings, and leaves are mixed in. Doing that will greatly improve drainage, texture, and nutrient content
*The peach tree is native to China
