Home Gardeners Autumn

Things to think about in this period;

Peaches Nectarines Apricots, Plums and Apples.

Gardeners in Subtropical areas with Sunset Peach or Nectarine should hand strip any leaves from their trees that have not yet fallen in May. This will give trees good, strong, even bud development required to obtain good quality fruit from these varieties in the Spring. Gardeners in cooler areas should leave this until mid June.
Follow defoliation of all fruit trees with a horticultural oil spray to control scale pests, and a good protective fungicide to control Curly Leaf (Refer to our Pest and diseases page for more information).
Any pruning required should be carried out in June (Refer to the PlantNet pruning page for more information).
