Notes

We have had a bout 16 golden queen peaches pop up from seed over the last year, I've had them in pots until we finished expanding the chicken run (and they were big enough to handle the chooks). Stone mulching around the roots is a definate requirement. Once they are a bit bigger, I'll be grafting on some more peach varieties to them.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
