The summer flooding rains caused my Florida Prince and Tropic Snow peach trees to loose their leaves. While peach tree farms in the area are full of leaves mine have none. The ground has pretty much dried out for over a month now. I have tried to scrape a couple of branches on each and they are still green, so hopefully alive. I did also put a nominal amount of fertilizer around the perimeter of the border and am lightly watering here in Central Florida every few days.
Any suggestions about bringing them back around?
Thanks
How often does it flood
Not that this answers your question, ( see the soil is dry now)
Long ago I read about zeolite the mineral that looks like cat liter (actually used for it)
it holds water , and releases slowly
If you have flooding maybe you could go out with a pick ax , and work it into soil around tree
this is just a thought ..
( read about it like 15 years ago on Garden web ,may be able to learn more abou it there)
It does reduce calcium I think in soil , but not completely certain
(but I know it does reduce one mineral pretty sure it is calcium)
