I've been thinking of getting a peach tree and planting it in our
greenhouse. A relative has done this very successfully in Wales and I
assume there's no reason it wouldn't work well in Scotland.
I knew someone whose peach grew outdoors in a chilly part of Central
region and it was laden with gorgeous fruit. The garden was a walled
courtyard in a frost valley, sunless all winter, but the peach was
planted against a white south-facing wall which was slightly warmed in
winter by the AGA on its other side. In summer it got a good baking from
sun.
