Red Haven Peach pruned to 3-4 ft

An excellent all purpose peach. The fruit are large and often blushed deep red. with excellent flavor and texture. May not be quite as hardy as reliance or contender. Ripens in late August.

Self-fertile.

Peaches are marginal in much of Vermont. That said we have gotten fruit for three years in a row now. Peaches are vigorous and quick to bear but winter will eventually wreck them.

Plant in a well drained location where the soil will will be shaded from winter sun, but the top will be in the sun during the summer, often on the north side of a building works well. Cold soil in the spring can delay flowering and help protect from frost damage.

We do not guarantee the hardiness of peach trees.
