In Reply to: O/T Peach pit ? posted by jCarroll on September 11, 2009 at 06:08:57:
Some confusion. The peach pit will grow with the stone on it (keeps the common earth grubs from eating it) It will come up next spring if planted now. The tree will be the same as the one that was planted. The peaches will be fine because the tree will be visited by Bees and other insects that will self polinate the blossoms, as well as bring in polin from other peach trees. The tree may not be desease resistant to soil based varments and root rot. (this is the reason most fruit trees are grafted to root stock of varieties that are resistant and robust) The roots do not affect the fruit except to keep the tree healthy. We had trees with grafted limbs with different fruit varieties on each. Peaches will grow in cool climates, and try to grow in cold zones. But winter kill from exterme (below -10 or so for prolonged periods) cold will kill them. Good luck. JimN
