Patio peach Crimson Bonfire
« on: June 23, 2012, 19:59 »
I bought one of these this year and the leaves are green when they ought to be, well, er, crimson. :wacko:

Does anyone know if this is normal and they will go red or do you think I have been sold the wrong plant?   :)

Or has the cool weather got to it? I hope you weren't sold the wrong plant.

Should be red leaved Ice.  We had some at work - not sure if they are still in stock but will have a look for you today. 

Ours came from a supplier called Blackmoor Fruit who supply half the trade.  Could be worth taking a pic and emailing them to have a look and see if they think its the right tree  :)

I think it's definately a patio peach but not the one I ordered.  Might just ask for my money back and if I can keep the peach I have then all is not lost.  A couple of other things have died so I need to contact them anyway. ::)

Thank you.  I did phone them today because my Phoenix Canariensis all died, not sure why.  They are replacing them and asked me to wait another two weeks before asking for a refund on the tree.  I think someone is expecting the leaves to miraculously change colour. ::)  Armed with this info I will demand a replacement or a refund tomorrow. :)
