We tried to grow peaches for a while I finally gave up and cut them down. our property wasn't conducive to peaches. We had woods to the west at the top of the property, on the slope facing the east was where the peach trees were at. we couldn't get a decent crop for nothing. that said... the neighbors directly to the West of us on the next road had a beautiful peach orchard. Location location location. top of the hill no woods to block the flow of air not mold being spewed out of the decaying matter all over the floor of the woods. West sunshine- no shade. sometimes it isn't just the varieties... it is the location.
