About the Elberta :
The Elberta Peach tree has very large fruit. It
is the best known yellow canning peach. The skin is
red blushed over a deep golden yellow color. This is
a high quality eating and canning peach. Elberta
peaches has the smallest pit-to-fruit ratio of any
peach tree we offer. It’s as sweet a peach as you
could imagine that you could have on the table.
Along with the delicious fruit, it’s a beautiful
tree. In the spring, rose-red blossoms will fill the
air with fragrance. And it grows well in a wide
geographic belt, from Zone 5 all the way through the
northern portion of Zone 9. In our opinion no finer
or lovelier peach tree exists anywhere.

Please note:
Your region's climate determines the type of fruit
trees and fruit that will grow successfully. The
climate must be compatible with the growing
requirements of the selected fruit tree. Some
varieties will even prevail in the harsher Upper
Midwest climates. Most fruit trees require between
130 - 150 frost-free days. If you are unsure as to
how many frost-free days your climate has, please
contact your local county extension office |
