Handling Peach Trees
W H Chandler of the University of Missouri discusses best planting times for peach trees in Missouri. Spring planting is preferred, with fall or early winter planting viable only in very moist southern counties. Tree size matters. large and medium stock yield better first summer growth than small stock. Caliper over height is advised for quality stock, and strong stock ensures a better head shape, especially for open head pruning.
Late spring planting risks for peach trees and best practices
The author warns that late spring planting after growth begins is poor. If buying trees, ensure nursery stock stays moist and cool. fall shipping with burial may be preferable. In well drained soil, digging in early spring can work. Peach trees must not be kept too warm or dried out in winter. Experiment Station trees left in ground over winter showed best growth.
