Peach tree #878406

Asked July 23, 2024, 11:37 AM EDT

I have a peach tree in my yard, it does really good producing fruit. The branches got pretty long this year and broke from the heavy fruit. How do I prune it for next year?

This publication will be a good start. There are some good videos by state master gardeners as well.
