Peach Tree Problems??

10 years ago
last modified: 10 years ago

I have a peach tree that is about 5-6 years old. The first year that it produced fruit, they were great; many peaches and they were delicious. Last year it fruited and there was something wrong with the peaches. I don't know if there were aphids eating them or if it had something else going on. There was a clear jelly like substance on some branches and the fruit had holes. I would spray the branches down with a pressure water hose to get the stuff off.
Now to this year. I live in San Antonio, TX. We did not have a hard winter; reached below freezing maybe 5-10 times. Currently, my tree has not bloomed any flowers. It has a few new green leaves, but nothing like previous years at this time of year. I am wondering if I should prune the branches, if that would help. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. MP
