About Strawberry Free White Peach

Strawberry Free white peach trees reach mature heights of 15 to 25 feet (5-8 m.). If you have a small yard, Strawberry Free also comes in a semi-dwarf version that tops out at 12 to 18 feet (4-5 m.). These peach trees are easy to grow, but they need 400 to 500 hours of temperatures below 45 degrees F. (7 C.) in order to trigger springtime blooms. This tree is a great addition to home orchards in USDA plant hardiness zones 6 through 9.

How to Grow Strawberry Free Peach Trees

Growing Strawberry Free white peaches is not really different than that of other types. Strawberry Free peaches are self-pollinating. However, a pollinator nearby may result in a larger crop and higher quality fruit. Select a tree that blooms at approximately the same time. Plant Strawberry Free white peaches in well-drained soil and full sunlight. Poor soil can be improved by digging in generous amounts of dry leaves, grass clippings, or compost prior to planting. However, avoid locations with heavy clay or sandy, fast-draining soil. Once established, Strawberry Free peach trees generally don’t need supplemental irrigation. However, it’s a good idea to give the tree a thorough soaking every seven to ten days during dry periods. Don’t fertilize Strawberry Free peach trees until the tree begins bearing fruit. At that time, fertilize in early spring using a fruit tree or orchard fertilizer. Never fertilize peach trees after July 1st. Strawberry Free peach trees are ready for harvest from late June to mid-July, depending on climate.
