I think it is because you need a number of hours of the complete tree

Peach and cherry needs many days at temperatures below 0ºC.
We had better than two weeks of freezing temperatures this winter.
In fact, it was so cold that my compost bin actually froze and burst open!
As we are suffering global warming the temperature range possibly has
narrowed in the area and that is the reason why this year in the
southern hemisphere practically there are no apples and your garden no
peach nor cherries.
Ugh! The only upside to this may be that I'll eventually be able to
grow citrus around here . . .
