Just a few pics,about my fruittrees
First my peachtrees.
They are "pechers de vigne" ,vineyard peaches.
usually they are grown from seed.
Not big,late ripening,in september or so.
They have an excellent resistance against 'clocque',that nasty curly leave desease.
One time I tried a pit from a commercial big fat peach.The tree was destroyed by the desease before it had any peaches.
For me the trees started to produce three years after planting ,after four or five years,the yield can be very good.But because it are not clones like grafted fruittrees the resuilts can be different from one tree to another.But unlike clones you can plant the seeds from the best trees to improve
This is a peachtree this winter
the same tree a few days ago in bloom,Sorry,it is so difficult to get it on a photo against the sky,but believe me it is beautifull
See how I mistreated him,I have to limit the shade in my garden,and it was out of balance
I have two old pears too They are in my new garden at the neighbouring house I bought two years ago
You, can see I heavily pruned it winter2010/2011,what provoked lots of new growth without blossom last year,but it is blooming now
These were my fruittrees,but I have more to show..the next time.
