Peach is a deciduous tree that belongs to the Rosaceae family. Peach is a valuable fruit crop that produces fruits with a pleasant taste and aroma.
Peach grows in a variety of climate zones, but it grows best in regions with warm and temperate climates.

1. Variety selection
When choosing a peach variety, you need to consider the following factors:
- Purpose of cultivation. For cultivation as a fruit tree, varieties with high yields and good quality fruits are selected.
- Winter hardiness. Some peach varieties can tolerate short-term frosts, while others require shelter for the winter.
- Self-fertility. Most peach varieties are self-sterile, so other peach varieties must be planted next to them to pollinate them.

2. Soil preparation
Peach is a light-loving and moisture-loving plant, so to grow it you need to prepare a sunny and well-drained place.
The soil for planting peach must be fertile and neutral or slightly acidic.

3. Landing
Peach seedlings are planted in the spring, when the threat of frost has passed.
Seedlings are planted in planting holes with a depth and diameter of 60-70 cm. A layer of drainage made of broken brick or crushed stone is poured into the planting hole, then a layer of fertile soil. The seedlings are planted so that the root collar is at soil level. After planting, the seedlings are watered abundantly.

4. Plant care
Peach is an unpretentious plant, but to get a good harvest the following measures must be taken:
- Watering. Peach is a moisture-loving plant, so it is necessary to water the plants regularly during the growing season. Water the plants 2-3 times a week, using 10-15 liters of water per 1 m².
- Feeding. During the period of active plant growth, 2-3 fertilizing with mineral fertilizers is carried out. The first feeding is carried out in the phase of 3-4 true leaves, the second - in the flowering phase, the third - in the fruiting phase.
- Trimming. To form the peach crown, pruning is carried out. Pruning is carried out in the spring, before the buds open.
- Protection from pests and diseases. Peach is susceptible to various diseases and pests. To protect plants from pests and diseases, it is necessary to carry out preventive treatments.

5. Harvest
Peach begins to bear fruit 3-4 years after planting. Peach fruits ripen in July-August. The ripening of peach fruits is determined by their characteristic color and softness. Peach fruits are harvested by hand, cutting them off with the stalk.
