Peach trees bear sweet, juicy fruit within just a few years, as well as provide lovely spring blossoms and attractive foliage, making them valuable as both landscape trees and a source of vitamin-rich food. Although there are many types to choose from, peaches are typically labeled as freestone (flesh separates readily from the pit) or clingstone (flesh clings to the pit). Give your fast-growing peach tree good, well-drained soil and plenty of sun, and you'll soon be enjoying tree-ripe peaches! And since they self-pollinate, you only need one tree!
