Hi all,
I've just moved homes and for the first time have a fruit tree - a
peach tree. I know very little about gardening, and I'm wondering if i
have to protect the fruit from insects, birds, bats etc?
The tree has flowered, and now has many small peaches.
I live in Brisbane, Australia, and it's winter here (not that it gets
cold, mind you).
thanks in advance

Jack,
I don't have a clue about what pests you my enounter. But, speaking
from recent personal experience if you have a heavy crop you'll need
to thin them out. I didn't thin mine - now I have broken limbs.
