I really want to have some peach trees, but I can't seem to keep any alive. I live in Northern Illinois and bought a 1 year old bare root reliance peach tree from two different sellers this year and last, both dropped their leaves just after showing their first leaves. I planted them both in the same spot, so I am thinking maybe there is something wrong with the soil? I don't know what else could be causing this.. Any ideas? Also, this year's tree still has one leaf clinging to it and the stem is still greenish, so it's still barely alive, do you think I might be able to move it to a different location and revive it? Or is it too late? =(
