Peach 'June Gold' 5 Gallon

Prunus persica 'June Gold'

All fruit trees require full sun and produce better yields with the addition of a compatible variety of fruit tree for pollination. 'June Gold' produces late May to early June. Fruit has melting yellow flesh with good flavor, blush skinned with a yellow background. The clingstone becomes semi-freestone as it ripens. This peach is self-fertile. Excellent multipurpose variety for eating fresh, canning, and pies. Plant in well-drained, nutrient rich amended soil. Water well after planting; maintain 1" of water once a week the first year. Prune in late winter to control size and form or after flowering. Remove dead or damaged stems at any time. Feed at least twice during the growing season with a slow release fertilizer in early spring and again mid-summer. Follow label instructions. Mulch 2" to suppress weeds, retain moisture and protect against extremes of soil temperature. A regular spraying schedule to reduce insects and disease is recommended.
