A large yellow freestone with a full red skin. This strong
vigorous peach originated in New South Wales. The flesh is

a few weeks.
FEATURES: Delicious fruit follows a beautiful Spring blossom
display of white, red or pink flowers. An ideal fruit tree for
small gardens or courtyards.
PLANTING: Choose an open sunny position in well-drained
soil. Dig a hole twice the width of the roots. Plant so that the
graft is at least 10cm above the ground. Cover the roots with
soil and water in well. Some well rotted compost or very old
animal manure will also be beneficial. Mulch well to retain soil
moisture and suppress weeds but ensure that mulch is kept
clear of the trunk.
FOR BEST RESULTS: Apply fertiliser to soil when growth
begins. Correct pruning techniques are essential to the tree’s
