Introduction of peach blossom
Peach blossom should be light loam, and the moisture should be kept semi-humid. Not tolerant of alkaline soil, not liking too sticky soil, not choosing fertilizer, and other ecological habits are roughly similar to plum blossoms. However, the growth potential and branching ability are stronger than that of plum blossom, but it can't last long, and it begins to decline from about 20 years old.
Generally, the tree age can reach 20 ~ 40 years. Peach trees begin to blossom and bear fruit very early, usually 1 ~ 2 years after the grafted seedlings are planted, and begin to blossom and bear fruit in 3 ~ 5 years. It grows rapidly, and can grow secondary buds 2-4 times a year. The root system is developed, especially the fibrous root, which is easy to survive after transplanting. Each node has 1 ~ 3 flower buds, almost sessile. Flowers and leaves germinate at the same time, and the leaves grow into full shapes after flowering.
Most peach varieties take long fruit branches as the main part of flowering and fruiting, but a few varieties, such as Shouxing peach, mostly blossom and bear fruit on short fruit branches and middle fruit branches. East China and Central China bloom more in the middle and late March, and the fruit ripens in June-September.
