Growing and Training

Saturn is cold-hardy but best-grown as a fan against a south-facing wall or fence, where the benefical microclimate will help ripen the fruits.

Wall training also makes it easier to cover the tree with horticultural fleece over the winter, to protect it from the rain splashes which cause peach leaf curl infections.

Saturn is a vigorous and productive variety and is likely to need thinning to get the best results.
