Depends on where you are in NYS. The area between Oswego and Rochester
had numerous peach orchards when I was growing up. Additionally, the
microclimates around the Finger Lakes that allow vinifera grapes to be
grown would support peaches. I'd strongly suggest getting more than one
tree, based on my experience with the apricot tree on the back 40 of our
yard. The trees may not be self-pollinating.
