The peach blossom loves light and does not tolerate shade. It is cold-hardy, drought-tolerant, and dislikes waterlogging, and its roots especially hate standing water. Choose loose loam with good drainage, and it should not be overly fertile, otherwise it will grow excessive branches and leaves and bloom less. For potted peach blossoms, even more attention should be paid to care:

Watering: Do not water until dry, water in moderation, and prevent water accumulation.

Fertilizing: Apply liquid fertilizer once or twice each year at flowering and after flowering; no fertilizing is needed at other times.

Pruning: Peach blossoms have the habit of differentiating flower buds in July and blooming the following spring. Pay attention to pruning. For young peach trees, the main goal is to develop a peach crown. After flowering, for branches that have bloomed, keep only two or three buds at the base and cut off all the rest. In summer, pinch back excessively vigorous branches to encourage flower bud formation. For plants growing poorly, avoid excessive pruning; instead, suppress the strong and support the weak, and ensure branches are evenly distributed to create a beautiful plant shape.

Repotting: Do this at the spring equinox each year. When repotting, place some phosphate fertilizer at the bottom of the pot as a base fertilizer, cut away overly dense roots, and fill in new potting soil.

Pest and disease control: Peach blossoms can develop peach leaf curl. At the first sign of disease, spray Bordeaux mixture once every half month and brush it on the trunk to control it. Pests such as aphids, slug moths, and longhorn beetles can be caught by hand or killed by spraying pesticide.
