This new, very cold hardy peach variety is changing the minds of many a cold pocket grower. Back in the 1990’s, fruit breeder Paul Friday (hence the PF) discovered this one seedling still loaded with peaches after all others were left bare by extremely cold Winter temps that damaged their buds. Trials over many years have confirmed the fruit bud hardiness as well as the very high quality of the fruit, both exceeding the well-known Reliance Peach variety (a cold tolerant gold standard). PF 24C’s yellow skin is nearly completely covered in red blush, with sweet juicy freestone yellow flesh. Please note: Our PF 24C Peach trees are on standard seedling rootstock, growing 15 to 20 feet tall, and do not require staking or support. Fruition’s PF 24C Standard Peach trees are 2-year old, non-organic, bare-root nursery stock.
Several Fruition tree varieties & rootstocks are patented, including this variety — to learn more, hop in here.
And Friends! This variety is self-fertile, which means it will bear fruit without another Peach variety nearby.
