Risingstar® Peach Tree
Description
Enjoy these juicy, sweet peaches early in the season! The Risingstar® Peach, part of the Stellar peach series, ripens up to a week earlier than the Redhaven. The beautifully red-colored, round fruit has attractive yellow and orange striped flesh.
The flesh is firm and melting with a pleasing sugar-acid ratio – perfect for fresh eating. Risingstar is a non-browning and semi-freestone peach variety and also has excellent shipping and storage qualities.
Hardy and vigor, the Risingstar® Peach tree has good resistance to bacterial spot and peach canker. This peach tree is a productive bearer of peaches with weeping growth with medium density.
