Pink peaches, white popcorn, and an orange pumpkin?
I've been growing peach trees in containers for a few years now. A couple of tips would be to use large pots (at least 15 gallon), fertilizer/water often during the growing season and protect the tree during winter (I move mine into our attached garage). The nice thing by doing this is that you can guarantee yourself fruit every year and not have to deal with dead blossoms, peach leaf curl and bad tasting hardy type peaches (Reliance just isn't a good tasting peach in my book).

Of course we have to have some popcorn (Puget Gold apricot) to go with our peaches.
Pumpkins in April? Not what you normally see growing this time of year...
