Why did you choose this?

Neighbors have one bought here

owned one before and the deep plnk flowers make it unique

Replacing one that was lost in a storm last year. (a 40 foot pine fell right on top of it and snapped it off at ground level!) Always looked forward to it's beautiful blooms in Spring!

My daughter has had one for 14 years and its blooms are beautiful and the color is unbelievable. A real show stopper!

Does anyone know the botanical name for the neon pink weeping peach tree?
What is the average longevity of a weeping peach?

Hi, Peach trees are relatively long lived. This peach tree is just like any other peach tee except that it weeps. That means if you don't have problems with borers, rodents chewing away at the base in winter and give it mulch, just a little fertilizer and water during extended dry spells it should live for 20 to 30 years maybe more if some storm doesn't damage it. This tree should be more widely planted because it is just gorgeous in the spring.

Are the fruits of the Pink Cascade Weeping Peach edible?

We planted this tree in 2006. The first few years, the fruit was small and didn't ripen, it would wither and looked like little raisins on the tree. I have usually tried to pick all the fruit off the tree when they are still very small, but as the tree has gotten larger it's gotten more difficult to remove all the fruit.
Last year, the fruit left on the tree were about 2" and rather than withering, were plump and juicy looking, and I actually ate one and it wasn't bad. This year I decided to leave a few on and see what would happen. Again they are about 2", and the flavor is not bad. Not as sweet as, say, an Elberta, but with only a hint of bitterness. I'm thinking of canning some.

Do I fertilize when planting ?

The best time to fertilize new fruit trees is in spring, starting after bud-break and finishing by July. This provides nutrients when trees need them most. More details can be found here:http://www.starkbros.com/growing-guide/article/fertilize-new-fruit-trees

Does this tree lose it's leaves in fall?

Hi Georgina, Thank you for your question. The Pink Cascade Weeping Peach tree is deciduous.

What color are the leaves?

The leaves on this weeping peach are a glossy green exactly like the leaves on the fruiting varieties of peach trees. Except for the pendulous weeping branches....the tree looks just like any other peach tree, dense leafy bright green.

What is the temperature range?

If you type your zip code into the box in the "Zone Compatability" section above, a checkmark will appear if the product on this page will grow well in your location.

do you have espelier fruit trees?

Hi Robert. We don't, but it's easy enough to do. You can espalier practically any fruit tree. The dwarf size is the easiest to espalier.

Weeping peach
I have had this tree for a few years now. It’s in part sun and shade next to my house. It’s has been blooming pretty well, but for some reason it didn’t bloom last year. I did prune it a lot. This year it bloomed beautifully! The first couple of years It did have a few peaches on it, but haven’t seen any since. I wish I could post a picture of it! I really love it!!

Gorgeous
This is the tree’s second summer. It is planted in full sun and has thrived. By the end of the first summer it looked like a green bush, about 6’x6’. In the spring of the second summer it was covered in the most beautiful flowers. I wish I could post a picture. The blooms faded the leaves became more prominent and it had shot up to around 12’ tall and between 6-8’ wide. It is covered in peaches. I have no idea if the peaches will mature to an actual edible peach. All in all this tree has been exceptional and fast growing.

Try this one.
This is my second weeping peach from Stark Brothers. I think I bought my first one in 1995. It blew over in a storm last year and I knew I couldn’t live without it. It has dark hot pink flowers like no other spring flowering tree and a great weeping form. I’m surprised that I own the only one i’ve ever seen. So if everyone on your block has a weeping cherry wow them with this weeping peach. I can’t recommend it enough.

Such a beautiful addition!
I am absolutely in love with our little weeping peach trees! They are still rather small, but this spring we had several little pink blooms and a small peach! I'm excited to see them get bigger and wish I could order more!

Lovely tree but it's growing peaches
Bought these beauties last year and they put on an amazing show of flowers this spring. Now I have teeny little fuzzy peaches. Hmm? I've been picking them off except a couple to see what they do. Peaches were lost to a late snow in RI this year, except my ornamental peaches.

Beautiful!
I got this late in the summer of last year. I was surprised to see the whole thing in bloom this year. It was so pretty. The blooms didn't last long because of all the rain, but it was so beautiful when it did.

Pink Cascade Weeping Peach
My favorite flowering tree. It blossomed this year. I planted this last year. I have also planted these in Michigan, Illinois and N Carolina. The spring blossoms stop the street traffic!
