This summer marks the final season for our peach tree.
After six years of diligent efforts, Neem oil and daily care, the peaches remain unproductive. Peach trees test even the most patient gardener.
We’re replacing it with a fig tree, ready to nurture something new. 🌱

The peaches made it through but now flea beetles are leaving tiny holes all over the leaves.
Looks like it’s back to neem oil, early mornings, and spraying under every leaf.
The fruit is safe. Now it’s the leaves’ turn. 🍑
