We have several newer peach and nectarine varieties that were developed by Texas A&M specifically for Texas gardens. In addition to being tasty, good looking and self-fertile, these varieties have many other fine qualities that are important to backyard growers:
• Need less cold winter weather to make them set fruit
• Ripen early so they develop less rot & need less fungicide
• Have good shelf life
• Are self-pollinating so you only need one tree
Plant these fruit trees now in well-drained soil, then water moderately and you should be enjoying your first crop next year. Come in for “Texas A&M” fruit trees and/or any of the “tried and true” varieties we have in stock…. and get growing!
