Fruit Tree Care
- By Twila Brooks

It is rare for us to have both a peach and apricot crop in the same year, but it looks like this year is going to be one of those years. It's too late to spray for peach leaf curl but you do need to control scab and brown rot. Use Captan to control disease on fruit trees. Malathion should be used every 10 to 14 days to control insects. Read all product labels carefully, paying special attention to the amount of time needed between last spray and harvest. We have a great selection of all plants right now including great looking fruit trees and roses. Good Growing!
