Alan,  That's very interesting, because I have some very pretty dwarf flowering peaches that make a very dense canopy and all their fruit is in shade.  I picked some fruit from the parent trees which wasn't too bad, but those trees had a lot of bare branches that had let the sun in.  My trees are bigger and leafier... which you would think was better but I guess not.  I've even read that people with dwarf peaches for fruit are advised to remove some leaves to let the sun on the fruit.     Donna
