Peach Blossoms – A Guide

During this season of spring, the sight of peach blossoms is everywhere. Not only are they incredibly beautiful and fill nature with warmth. But they also indicate that soon delicious peaches will be ready for harvesting. To help you make the most of this season, here’s a guide on some facts about peach blossoms that all customers wanting to buy fruit and vegetables should know.

Peach Trees

Peach trees generally start to bloom in late March or early April. The bloom period lasts anywhere from 7-14 days during which the white and pink flowers blossom, filling nature with beauty and color. After the flowers have bloomed and fallen off. Small fruits can be seen starting to form on the branches of the tree. Depending upon environmental conditions like temperature and humidity, these fruits will ripen by mid-summer.

Pollination

The process of pollination is essential for any flowering plant, including peach trees. Pollination involves transferring pollen grains from the male reproductive organ (anther) of a flower to the female reproductive organ (stigma). For pollination to take place in peach trees, insects like honey bees are responsible for transferring pollen grains from flower to flower when they come in search of nectar and honeydew secretions produced by certain species of aphids living on peach trees.

Harvesting

The harvesting process begins when all the fruits are fully ripe and ready for picking. Peaches harvested using handpicking or mechanical harvesters depending upon their type. Handpicking is suitable for delicate varieties while mechanical harvesters are used for more robust varieties since they’re able to shake off more peaches at once without damaging them as much as handpicking would do so. After harvesting is complete, it takes about five days for peaches to reach supermarket shelves where consumers can enjoy them at their fullest freshness!
