About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
The worldwide standard among peaches and a dependable start for your garden. From early to mid August the tree bears yellow fleshed, freestone fruit with a strong red cheek. Like all peaches the variety is self fertile, so you do not need a second tree. It is, however, only weakly resistant to peach leaf curl, so plan for an airy site.
Juicy, firm yellow flesh with a balanced play of sweetness and acidity and a fine peach aroma.
