Peach Blossom


Lori's first blooms

Peach blossoms turn white then pink.

All three peach trees now have blooms and can pollinate each other.  We're excited to have peaches this year.  The first harvest is expected in July from Harvey, followed by Lori in August, and Belle in September.

The peaches will be great with the blackberries from their bushes and hopefully some Granny Smith Apples from the new tree Randy planted today.

  1. I can't believe that your peach tree's have blooms on them. Also a tomato plant growing in the garden? You could dig the morning glories up & put them on the back side by the fence. They are smart, they want the whole flower bed. Ha Ha.

  2. We've always had the tomato plants in the garden. Ours aren't smart enough to grow upside down. You're right. The morning glories want the whole flower bed, wall, and driveway.
