I bought a peach tree today to transplant and I appreciate this video beyond measure.

I treat my fruit trees like my bonsai trees. Before I plant them I wash all the soil off and comb out the roots around the trunk. Then I plant with the roots complete spread horizontally and in as even of a circle as I can get. Fruit trees are pretty forgiving when it comes to roots, as long as they don’t dry out you can’t really kill em. I just bought a elberta peach to replace the one from 3 years ago that my goats ate… my debit card must have told my Facebook or my cell phone that I bought one today to get a video like this recommended to me…

Going to Home Depot today and decided to do a little research prior. Thank you for this

I love this video.I purchased a peach tree from walmart and had no idea how I was going to transfer. But your video was very detailed.Thank you😊

How is your tree doing

And my wife thinks you just buy something from Home Depot and just stick it in the ground. Glad I saw this.

Wow you make me want to dig mine up and replant them LOL

Great video,thanks for all the valuable info. You should make more videos, I can tell you have a wealth of knowledge . I would love to watch and learn from you. ✌

Lmao. I literally just bought a peach tree from Lowes’s. Think I was meant to see this today.

Thx for sharing! This video is very helpful. Q- I just purchased a dwarf peach a wk ago. I haven’t planted yet but it’s April 1st in NY, zone 7. Can I plant it outside now? It already started flowering.

Thx for the real world education! My tree roots will have room to grow and thrive.

Great video! Great teaching! Question: Can we take a tree that is in the beginning stages of this video and and make the repairs then put it in the ground instead of another bigger pot ?

You’re really good at explaining this.

So glad I found this before planting

Wow, absolutely illuminating! Thank you

Outstanding video. thank you very much! I bought several fruit trees from nurseries. I will inspect each and every one of them before transplanting in the ground.

Bro! This is so important!!!! Thank you!!!

This is great advice! My situation is a little different but I now know what I need to do.

Fabulously informative video. Thank you.

Hello Barry, I have ultra dwarf trees. Peach, plum, Meyer lemon and blood orange. I planted them in large, clay colored plastic pots about 4 years ago. They are still really small. The trees fruit but the fruits grow really small. The lemons usually turn brown and fall off. I use fish / guano emulsion and home made compost for fertilizer and water when the soil looks dry. All on an infrequent scale, nothing to a certain schedule. Also, the Japanese beetles ravage the small fruits. All of this usually happens this time of year in July. The beetles show up now. Even though the beetles eat the small fruit in July, I think the fruit should be much larger by now. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong and how can I keep the pests off the trees without using pesticides? I have seen a burlap mesh material which supposedly keeps the pests out while letting sunlight in. Your thoughts on this?

My question would be about dwarf trees that are grown in pots. I want to grow a dwarf peach tree on my deck. I would like a dwarf tree and not a semi dwarf tree. I wonder what size pot should be my final size to help minimize the amount of circling in the pot.

I really enjoyed this segment. Kudos !!!!

I bought a small peach tree from Home Depot, it was completely root bound. While transplanting, I had to cut the container to get it out. I had initially transplanted it as is into a bigger container, after watching this video I dug it out and removed the extra roots and trimmed the remaining roots.

One tough tree

👍🏼great instruction my friend❗️ol veteran gardener like myself WILL subscribe 2day..invaluable education indeed,since recently purchased 2 small seedling peach trees- halford & Lovell variety's

I was given a baby peach sapling in a 5 gallon bucket. It grew organically on its own off of a peach pit in their yard and they dug it up and gave it to me. It’s about 18 inches tall and very leafy but he told me it might be root bound. I’m not sure if this is what I need to do? We are building a house and it’s 20 months away. What size are those containers that you transplanted that tree into? I’m thinking that will be perfect time for it to settle into a new container while our house is being built and then I can transplant it into the ground. Thank you for such an informative video!

I wish I’d seen this 20 minutes ago

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video. I am about to transplant my new Elberta Peach Tree and the roots are bound just like this one in your video. I am in zone 8b Oregon City, Oregon, it is November, early winter (mild this year), when would be the best time to complete this process of cleaning the roots and transplanting? Thank you for your time and information. Would you also mind sharing your soil mixture as well?

Glad i watched this before planting my Florida king... I planted a mid pride Florida about 2 months ago, is it to late to build a moat around it?

Wow thank you

We're happy to report that they did miraculous! We put them in the ground a few months ago and will be revisiting them for feeding and pruning since the spring here in NC came early this year!

Hello my name is Stacey and I came across your video well I purchased a peach tree from Lowe's last year and I planted it in the wrong spot which was a low spot in my back yard it holds a lot of water there and didn't know at time of planting it only made 10 peaches this year but they all got witther up and dried the leaves are yellow and some are green and very dry it got like that after a hard rain we had I'm in Louisiana can my tree be save and can it be move right now thank you anything will be helpful I also subscribed to your channel

my boy sounds like dr. phil

I planted mine last night. I wish I would have seen this first. I did loosen the root ball. A little bit of the dirt was loose will that be okay or should I replant it?

I received a free peach tree from the city tree give away and it came with flowers. Can I transplant it while there’s flowers? Thank you

Yes. And it's best to not let the tree fruit the first year. Trees needs to focus on rooting not fruiting after transplant. Get it in the ground and enjoy the beauty, fruit will come in the next year or two.

So is it better to buy when it's 2-3 feet as opposed to when 5-6 feet??

Does all of this apply to blueberry bushes too?

Is this an issue with pulp (biodegradable) pots as well? Thank you

Hey there, my lime tree has all its leaves at the bottom and barely any at the top, do I prune all the bottom ones off?

We brought a peach tree sometime around February,it had lots of leaves and peaches growing on it , read we had to wait fall ant it was dormant so we can plant it in ground , well here it is fall soon winter will be here and we want to plant the tree ,but it is full of leaves still , so can we plant it or wait till it is bare , the peaches were sweet, by the way we brought it from home depot ,what do you recommend for us to do ,any help appreciated, live your video, great info

I bought a apple tree from a man who told me to plant it so the soil is just below the graft, so that the stem doesn't branch out below the graft

I have a peach tree that I need to relocate I live in the Catskills ny and is September of 23 now When can I relocate it safely thank you

It’s good to know experienced arborists also forget to check roots. Curious though. If peach trees are supposed to be pruned about 1-2 ft up to have an open canopy, what good is buying a tall peach tree. I’m stuck with a 2 yr old tree which I’ll probably have to cut it all the way back because it has the wrong shape. 😏

buy bare root trees from Stark Bros and follow their instructions.,

I had a friend that was redoing their backyard landscaping and we’re going to remove two fruit trees that were 3-5 years old. He asked if I wanted them so I went and dug them out as carefully as possible. Will they survive?

They should.

Why can't the peach tree be planted for 3-6 months just because you cut the roots? What's the difference between the pot and the ground? And if I have to wait that long then what about my customers that wanting planting? Am I not able to buy the plant or tree from the nursery, cut the roots like you did and plant it right away? How do I go about this with customers?

Score the root ball on site during transplanting. All new transplants will. need proper TLC

You'll be OK! If you kept transplant shock to a minimum for the first 30 - 60 days!

why don’t they put dirt in the bottom of the pot before putting the tree in, instead of putting the tree in first and burying the collar?

Great video, best I have ever seen here.

I know this is an older post, but I have a couple questions. I could grow peach trees 2 miles away, but not where I am at. Tried several times with bare root. I currently have a desert like micro climate. Is it because it’s too hot and cold? Sandy soil. They generally die off and come from the root and shrub. We installed drip irrigation this year because of drought, but peach already died. This one came with a strange plug for roots-it was weird. Apples, plums, berries are all doing ok. My other issue is a Blaze Maple that was gorgeous 20’ tree and I forgot to cover the trunk in winter and it frost cracked and fell over. Since then it sends up a ton of suckers. I trained one vigorous sucker and it is doing Great, But it still sends up suckers at the base. Is there any way to stop the suckers? Z5a, WI. Crazy weather doesn’t help and this year had late frost after hot weather that broke dormancy and took out a grape and winery lost crop. Thanks for great tips on root bound trees. Sister in law had a locust tree and it was severe. Thank you!

Hey, I’m from the U.P, Zone 5a as well! Sounds tough over there but we have similar conditions of soil. If it’s been pretty dry, that might be the issue. They can tolerate the sandy soil if it has enough organic matter to feed on, but if it’s too dry the tree might dry out too quickly, too often. How did that second one pan out with drip, and did you ever get a soil test?

Hello Berry, you were doing fine transplanting that peach tree too. You said you were made your own dirt and filling out the pot with dirt. My question is why would you use a terminology like dirt? Do you know that dirt is dead it contains nothing no organisms or anything living in soil contains life has nutrients microorganisms, so please tell me why you were used to terminology dirt as an arborist please

Because "dirt" is just a generic term that you're attributing more meaning to than what it has.
