Dwarf Peach Tree

Several young peaches are visible under the canopy. The next useful job is thinning once the fruit reaches nickel to quarter size, keeping the remaining peaches spaced enough to size up without overloading the little tree.

The tree is carrying clean, vigorous foliage from top to skirt, with the raised beds and surrounding perennials showing how strongly this corner has filled in since bloom.

Peak to near-peak bloom, early leaf-out underway, strong flowering across the canopy. Nice contrast with the Pugster butterfly bush behind it.

Peach bloom still dominates. Pugster, salvia, and buddleia defining the lower layer. Bed geometry reads clearly with the brick edging.

Leaf-out doing most of the visual work now. Young branch structure easier to read than at peak bloom.

Tree is thriving — bright new growth at the tips, no visible leaf curl or disease. Copper spray from March paid off. Watch for fruitlets setting over the next couple weeks.

Tree looks healthy, evenly leafed, structurally clean. Good sign it has transitioned safely into active seasonal growth.

Tree form clear above the brick-edged planting pocket. Nearby sedum and perennial foliage filling the lower layers.

Buds swelling along the branches, tree still mostly bare. Pre-bloom structure easy to see.

Useful context for what the canopy looks like fully committed to the season.
