I planted a peach tree about 3 years ago in a raised flowerbed. I try to only water the flowers around the drip line and just mulch the up to the trunk. I did amend the soil pretty deep--about 2 feet. With the recent rains, the tree is really tipping and I'm afraid it will completely topple over if I don't do something quickly. I am concerned about 2 things that I may have encouraged and I don't know how to fix either one! The tree must not be sending it's roots down because water is so readily available and did I create a "pot" for it to grow in by amending the soil around it so that it won't now send it's roots down into the hard ground below. Is there anything I can do to help my tree?
