A long-time favourite in Australia, this dwarf variety delivers reliable crops of large, juicy peaches while remaining easy to manage and harvest. Ideal for Melbourne backyards, courtyards and large pots, it offers excellent eating quality without requiring a large orchard.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nIn spring, the tree is covered in beautiful pink blossom before developing large, round peaches that ripen from late December through to early January. The fruit features a deep pink blush over a creamy background with firm, white freestone flesh that is sweet, juicy and full of flavour. Perfect for eating fresh, the fruit is also ideal for stewing, jams, baking and preserving.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nLike all dwarf fruit trees, Dwarf Anzac produces full-sized fruit on a compact tree, making it ideal where space is limited. It is a prolific bearer and, due to the heavy crop loads it can carry, permanent staking is recommended to provide additional support.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMature size: approximately 2.5 metres high × 2.5 metres wide\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPollination: Dwarf Peach ‘Anzac’ is self-fertile, so only one tree is required to produce fruit.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare \u0026amp; Growing Tips\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPlant in a full sun position with at least six hours of direct sunlight each day for the best flowering and fruit production. In Melbourne's hotter summers, protection from harsh afternoon sun and hot northerly winds can help reduce fruit scorch.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPrefers fertile, well-drained soil enriched with compost or well-rotted organic matter. In Melbourne's heavier clay soils, improve drainage by planting into a raised garden bed or mound. This variety also grows exceptionally well in large pots using a premium-quality potting mix.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nWater deeply and regularly while establishing. During summer, maintain consistent moisture while fruit is developing, particularly through hot, dry weather. Reduce watering during winter dormancy.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFeed in early spring and again in autumn with a quality fruit tree fertiliser high in nitrogen to support healthy growth and heavy cropping.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPrune during winter dormancy to encourage productive new fruiting wood, maintain an open canopy and improve airflow. Annual pruning is essential for producing quality peaches.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nApply a preventative Bordeaux spray at the beginning of winter and again just before bud swell to help control peach leaf curl and other fungal diseases. Protect ripening fruit from birds using netting.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPermanent staking is recommended, as mature trees can carry heavy fruit loads that place additional stress on the branches.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eIdeal for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Home orchards\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Small backyards\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Courtyards and patios\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Pots and container growing\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Fresh eating\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Stewing, jams and preserving\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Family gardens\u003cbr\u003e\r\n– Productive edible landscapes","brand":"Warran Glen Garden Centre \u0026 Cafe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49010895192315,"sku":"panzd","price":69.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0453\/6601\/8210\/files\/38175_IMG-6748.jpg?v=1782533244","url":"https:\/\/warranglen.com.au\/products\/peach-anzac-dwarf","provider":"Warran Glen Garden Centre \u0026 Cafe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
