Peach Tree - 'Garden Lady'

This is one of our most popular peach trees, Garden Lady is a compact dwarf peach tree that produces full sized peaches with sweet juicy yellow flesh. Perfect for eating straight from the tree......speaking from experience on this one.

Because Garden Lady is a dwarf peach tree, it's a fantastic option for those short on space, it's perfect for smaller (or larger) gardens, courtyards or you can even grow one in our very popular 'Growbags'.
Growbags give you the flexibility to move your fruit tree around to find the perfect spot, or even take it with you if a house move is on the cards.

Like all fruit trees, winter is the ideal time to plant. Although they may look like just bare branches right now, winter allows them to establish strong roots, ready to put on a fruity show when spring arrives.

You will find Garden Lady in our "small fruits" section 😁
