HI, i live in Australia so our climate zones are obviously quite different, therefore i cant really give you a good idea of what time of year to prune. as a general rule you should alway do a much harder prune leading into summer/spring as this is when a tree will do most of growing. Remember to that some fruit trees take many years to come into fruiting, take some citrus trees for example, they can get up to 6-7 years old before they start bearing fruit. Dragon fruit usually wont fruit for 10 years! im not sure about peach trees as they dont grow well in this tropical climate, but if your tree is flowering but not fruiting, it sounds more like a disease or nutrient problem.

first thing you should do is check your PH, find out what PH is required for peach trees and dolomite, sulphar ect to adjust your soil.

if PH is fine, make sure you giving your plant plently of micro nutrients, most fertilizers will only have NPK Nitrogen, Phosphorus & Potassium. Check the label to see if it offers micro or, 'trace' nutrients. such boran, iron , ect

THirdly if fertiliser and soil not the problem…….are there bees coming to pollenate the flowers?? REMEMBER – NO BEES, NO FRUIT.

other than these ideas the only other thing i could suggest is checking for sings of disease or maybe even nematode damage, ie .root knot.

I live in south georgia and my peach trees are four years old and have not put on fruit at all. They bloom but no fruit. I need to know when to prune and how to prune. Our extension agent says wait until Feburary or March. They are blooming then. I have been told to prune after fruit is shed. I have been told to prune in September. I have tried all and no fruit. Can you help me.

Thank you in advance. Lyra
