Peach Golden Queen Prunus - Fruit Trees - Garden View Nursery

• Golden Queen is a freestone peach variety originally developed for Australian growing conditions and climate requirements.
• Features beautiful pink blossoms in late winter to early spring, followed by golden-yellow fruit with sweet, aromatic flesh.
• Grows as a medium-sized deciduous tree reaching 4-6 metres tall and wide at maturity with spreading growth habit.
• Self-pollinating variety that doesn't require another peach tree nearby, though cross-pollination can increase fruit yield significantly.

• Water weekly during growing season with 2-3cm depth, checking soil moisture 5cm down before watering again.
• Position in full sun location protected from strong winds, ensuring minimum 6 hours direct sunlight daily.
• Plant in well-draining loamy soil enriched with compost - avoid waterlogged or heavy clay locations.
• Apply complete fruit tree fertiliser in early spring and potassium-rich feed after harvest for next season's development.
• Prune annually in late winter removing dead wood, suckers, and crossing branches to maintain open vase shape.
• Mulch around base in summer to retain moisture and suppress weeds, keeping mulch away from trunk.

• Plant in full sun location with at least 6-8 hours direct sunlight for best fruit production and tree health.
• Water deeply once weekly during growing season, more frequently during fruit development. Reduce watering in winter dormancy period.
• Requires well-draining soil with pH 6.0-7.0 - amend clay soils with compost and sand for better drainage.
• Prune in late winter to maintain open centre structure and remove dead or crossing branches. This improves air circulation and light penetration.
• Feed with balanced fertiliser in early spring and again after harvest to support next year's crop development.

• Aphids can cluster on new growth - spray with insecticidal soap or encourage beneficial insects like ladybirds. Check regularly during spring growth spurts.
• Brown rot fungus affects flowers and fruit during humid weather - ensure good air circulation and remove infected material promptly. Apply copper fungicide if needed.
• Leaf curl disease causes distorted foliage - treat with copper spray in winter before buds swell. Remove affected leaves immediately.
• Scale insects appear as small bumps on branches - scrape off manually or apply horticultural oil during dormant season.
