While we were gone delivering our oldest child into the hands of higher learning, catastrophe struck our property. Or, more accurately, catastrotree. Our last remaining peach tree was completely loaded with fruit and fell victim to a driving rain and high winds.
Fortunately, after I got all of the limbs, leaves and tiny peaches cleaned up, I found that a spriglet growing out of the main trunk. It is about 3 foot tall now and obviously shares the same root system. We are hoping to take out the large trunk and seal the stump with out killing the new baby tree. Time will tell if this plan is sound. Or possibly the internet will tell if can get my husband to Google it before firing up the chainsaw!
