Patio Peach and Cherry tree
Today I made time to take a few photos of my dwarf container trees.
I am amazed I remembered how to use my camera as I have been busy painting and decorating.
I wanted to update blog and show photos of these little trees. I'm pleased with both as last year the cherry tree only produced 1 single cherry.
The peach tree looked dismal last year and I did not imagine it would survive the winter let alone produce any fruit. I have just ran out and counted and I have 6 small fruit on the peach tree so I am keeping fingers crossed that the birds leave them alone and I at least get one to taste!
I have not fed the trees at all this year but Lisa has made a nettle insectiside/fertiliser by collecting stinging nettles from her garden and placing in container of water. The stuff stinks but I have read good reports on it.
On Saturday I will take a bottle and give the trees a treat and save myself a few pound on the miracle grow.
