Pruning starts immediately after planting to balance tops and roots. Leave three or four branches on the left for a central leader, with the lowest on the southwest to avoid sun scald. Space branches four to five inches apart, cut left branches eight to ten inches from the trunk, and shorten the leader by about two thirds. Remove all other branches close to the trunk.

Care of Peach Trees After Harvest to Prevent Bark Beetles
As soon as harvest ends remove all diseased fruit and dead twigs from peach trees. Also prune all weak limbs showing bark beetle injury to stop spread. If dead material remains through summer, the bark beetle can destroy the tree. For next season’s crop, protect this year’s growth and use proper spray timing or sugar-based solution when Bordéoaux mixtures aren’t available.
