Description
Prunus
Growing in Phoenix: One of the most delicious fruits that announce the summer! Peaches will take full sun once established but will be better with afternoon shade. They need slightly acidic to neutral soil and deep watering. This is a deciduous fruit and does not require winter protection. Add chelated iron as needed if it becomes chlorotic in summer. We carry a selection of varieties suitable for the Phoenix climate and that are self-fruitful. Suitable for container growing.
See the planting and care guide page for planting and watering instructions.
Tropical Snow: A beautiful white-fleshed peach that is sweet and low in acid. This freestone variety ripens in mid-May. A round firm fruit on medium-sized trees. Popular variety.
Sauzee Swirl: Medium-sized, saucer-style peach. The white flesh is swirled red. The skin is tinted pink to dark red. This is a cling stone variety. Harvest mid to late May. A semi-dwarf variety, great as a container variety.
