Many of our Peaches and Nectarines are reaching the end of their useful life. This year we began a three to four year plan to replace all of these trees. The bad part of doing this is that we will turn marginally producing trees to non producing trees for at least two and most likely three years. The upside is it will allow us to try some new varieties including a later Nectarine and a White Peach. We also included some Red Gold Nectarines. Red Gold is the first nectarine we grew and was also the best tasting, but difficult to grow. Because of this difficulty we have not had Red Golds for about ten years. I'm believing I'm a better grower than when we started....we will see.
