Introduce a touch of elegance and fruitful potential to your garden with live Florida peach trees. This set of two grafted peach trees, standing 3-4 feet tall, promises vibrant greenery and future harvests. Whether you’re looking to add beauty or enjoy the satisfaction of homegrown fruit, these well-rooted trees are a perfect choice.
Designed for outdoor enthusiasts, these peach trees thrive in full sunlight and require acidic, sandy soil to reach their full potential. Each tree arrives in a 3-gallon pot, prepped and ready for planting. With a bit of patience—three to four years—your efforts will be rewarded with delicious, juicy peaches.
Peach trees flourish in moderate climates and are ideal for USDA zones 5-9. Although tropical temperatures suit citrus fruits, peach trees prefer cooler environments, making them an excellent option for gardeners across many regions. Self-fertile by nature, a single tree will produce fruit, though adding more will enhance your harvest.
Caring for these trees is straightforward: water them regularly, especially during dry periods, and ensure they’re planted in a well-drained area. Pruning during the dormant season promotes healthy growth, and a balanced fertilizer will keep them nourished throughout the year.
Perfect for landscaping projects or as a charming orchard addition, these peach trees not only offer aesthetic appeal but also deliver the joy of seasonal fruit production. Their deciduous nature ensures beautiful seasonal changes, enhancing the landscape through every season.
