Description

As a member of the Stellar family of peaches – the Glowingstar® Peach is a hardy tree of high quality and excellent flavor. Glowingstar® produces large freestone peaches with 70% red coloring over yellow on the skin, covering the juicy, yellow flesh of the fruit. The skin is not prone to browning and these peaches store well.

Glowingstar® Peach trees are very winter hardy, productive, and resistant to bacterial spot.

The Glowingstar® Peach tree is one of the Stellar® series of trees developed in Michigan. Each member of the family ripens at different intervals, so you can plant several varieties and have peaches last throughout the season. The Glowing Star peach comes near the end of the Stellar family, ripening 3 weeks after Red Haven.

Looks like a good producer

It is supposed to be good for cold winters. Also it ripens 3 weeks after Redhaven, which I also ordered. I like having a staggered harvest.

I wanted a winter hardy, self pollination peach tree.

It is the only peach that grows in my zone.
