Peach Trees

Peaches

Decorative and productive trees well suited to many temperate regions of New Zealand. Good for home gardens and all reliably self-fertile, with a regular pruning, they keep good annual yields.

Black Boy Peach

Medium fruit with port wine skin and lush, meltingly-good flesh. Rumoured to be of French-Lyonnais origin, this is now a uniquely-Kiwi staple at the height of summer. Good eater and bottler and a great tree for the home orchardist.

Code PS-PBB $30.00

Briggs Red May

Old fashioned early bearer, this freestone has an enticing yellow flesh that's sweet and juicy. Good for eating fresh.

Code PS-PBRM $30.00

Dixie Red

Geneous in size, this red-skinned, freestone has a delectable yellow flesh. It's a vigorous, early season variety with strong resistance to Leaf Curl and best-suited to cooler, temperate regions.

Golden Queen Peach

Medium sized fruit, this is a classic bottling peach for the Kiwi home garden. Not a freestone, but definitely worth the effort for bottling.

Code PS-PGQ $30.00

Paragon

Widely grown in New Zeaqland commercial orchards, this is also a classic home garden peach of yesteryear with sweet, yellow, juicy flesh in mid season. It's a Clingstone with fine texture and yellow skin. Tree is a regular and heavy cropper, bearing from a young age.

Code PS-PPA $30.00

Red Haven

Red skinned and one of the few freestone peaches to be hardy, early and heavy bearing. Not too fuzzy, the yellow flesh is firm and delectable, prized for baking or eating fresh.

Code PS-PRH $30.00

Wiggins

Classic clingstone with notable white flesh, it's great for eating fresh and equally lovely for bottling. Sweet and tangy old- fashioned early bearing variety grown in many home orchards throughout New Zealand.
