peach tree from the pit?

alright i'll trim the top before i go to work, i could see if i still have some red barn paint and use that. still need to decide where we're planting it i'm going to espalier the tree so that it doesn't get huge. we've only got 5 1/2 years on the mortgage left so we won't be able to take it with us but i can save seed or a cutting if possible when we find our next home. DH says that we'll probably start looking in about 10 years. that gives us 5 years to save up after this is paid off. who knows maybe these peaches will help pay off the mortgage! btw how long till i should expect fruit? its a grocery store peach... i think. idk i might have saved it from a farmers market

you might consider bonsai. you won't get many peaches, but the blossoms are really lovely. and this you can take with you.

Well it died..... oh well Walmart and Home Depot will be selling fruit trees soon it's just having the spare $30+ to buy one. I can't remember do I need two peaches or is it self-fertile?

I just looked through the Stark Bros catalogue. Most of their peaches are self-pollinating but a few require others to pollinate them. I guess it depends on variety. Do any of your neighbors have peach trees?
