Bonfire Patio Peach Tree

Your Bonfire Patio peach tree does not only produce fruit for you to enjoy, but some wildlife animals might enjoy their fruits as well. Certain animals like deer, rabbits, possums, squirrels, etc., may make attempts to snack off your beautiful peach trees. However, to prevent them from damaging your tree, be sure to prune or remove fruit tree limbs, pick up and dispose of any fallen peaches, and cover your tree's leaves with a reusable plastic mesh bird netting before the peaches are ripe. We recommend doing so about three weeks before your peaches are ready for harvest. Some garden pests may try to attach to your fruit tree as well. These include aphids, moths, stink bugs, borers, caterpillars, and more. Be sure to keep an eye on your trees to ensure no bugs or pests are attacking and ruining your delicious fruit tree.

The fruit from Bonfire Peach trees is edible like any other peach tree. Unlike Bonanza peach trees, Bonfire Patio Peach trees produce sweet and sizeable peaches. The peaches from Bonfire peach trees is commonly used for baking and canning because of their sweet and succulent flavors.

Overwatering your Bonfire Patio Peach tree is more common than underwatering. This fruit tree is quite susceptible to certain brown rot diseases that occur in wet conditions. Too much water can decrease your tree's health, and this is when it becomes prone to problems. Trees in containers should have a consistent watering schedule because their soil will dry out much faster. Be sure your tree is in well-draining potting soil, and the pot has excellent drainage holes. If your tree is in the ground, be sure you have planted it in an area that has well-draining soil conditions. Trees in the ground should only have a consistent watering schedule in their first year to help establish their roots.
