“Millions of peaches, peaches for free...” last year when I arrived at this garden the 2 peaches and 1 apricot had already flowered and gone over, resulting in only about 5 pieces of fruit for all of them. This year I have hand pollinated all 3 trees and so far, the shucks off this “peregrine” peach have fallen, leaving behind a bounty of developing fruit. I would hazard a guess at a 95% success! #peach #fruit #developingfruit #glasshouse
I know @awomanonabike , nothing better than eating a peach straight from the tree, especially when it’s slightly warm! I’ll have plenty of people knocking at the door for some

need to read on thining peaches. to many very small & heavy break branches. thining makes for a better quality crop.
Yes I’ll do that in a few weeks when I see which develop to better sizes, thanks
Fantastic! 😊 You will be so popular this summer 🍑🍑🍑

We have a peregrine and they are gorgeous, though you do have to catch them before they go papery 👍🍑
Perfect, thanks! The few that were on it last year were snaffled very quickly, so didn’t know about them turning like that, that’s good to know!
