Donut™ Peach or Stark Saturn (Also known as Peento, Saucer, Peentau, or Doughnut) has a doughnut-shaped flat fruit with a sunken center and plump outer edge. Its clingstone flesh has overtones of almond and honey. The Donut™ Peach is reliable and known for its dependable yields. It is a winter-hardy tree that bears heavy crops of fruit that measures 2 1/4 to 2 3/4 inches in diameter. It is self-fruitful and ripens in late June or early July in central California, and in some climates, it ripens in August. It requires an estimated 400-500 hours of chilling.

Polly White Peach - Sale Price: $78.50 The Polly peach also known as the Polly White peach is one of the most winter hardy peach varieties. The Polly peach tree was developed in Iowa and is hardy to –20 degrees Fahrenheit. This tree blooms later so it is not as susceptible to late frosts. This peach has all the eating characteristics you are seeking, sweet, medium-sized and white fleshed. It sports a crimson-blushed white skin. If your taste buds desire a sub-acid (low tartness) white fleshed peach, this one is for you! They have been known to be white as snow and sweet as honey! It is a freestone peach with the flesh easily falling away from the pit. The sugar content is very high which makes it outstanding for fresh eating. This tree does not need a pollinator and the fruits mature by mid-summer. Peach trees need full sun and well-drained soils. They should be pruned annually while dormant. A white fleshed peach is never as sweet as it is when freshly picked. A store bought Polly peach will fail to compare to the one you pick from your own yard!

Elberta - Sale Price: $78.50 Spring Color and Abundant Fruit on Dwarf Peach Tree The Elberta Peach (Prunus persica 'Elberta') is certainly one of the most beautiful, and useful peach trees you could own.  Plant a row of them along your driveway to amaze your neighbors with their scarlet spring display and August harvest.  Place a single one near a window or patio and watch as your little peaches grow and ripen. The Elberta is prized for its fruit being especially large and great for both eating right off the tree or canning.  Imagine walking across your yard in August to see your Elberta laden with fruit.  Pick one of the heavy peaches and feel it fill your hand with its delightfully fuzzy exterior.  The peach itself is so lovely with it red-blushed yellow skin that it’s almost a shame to bite into its sweet, juicy flesh.  When eating this peach your teeth will rarely graze the pit as it has one of the smallest pit to fruit ratios of any peach.  If you decide to can or juice some of your peaches, the freestone nature of this peach ensures that the pit will pop right out.  The Elberta is known for bearing a large crop, so you’ll be able to share your good fortune each year with friends and neighbors. The Elbert is a dwarf, growing to 15-30 feet with equal spread, so it won’t take up too much of your planting space.  It’s incredibly disease resistant and quite adaptable to various soil types, so you won’t have to fuss with costly sprays or fertilizers.  The fragrant spring flowers add to this little tree's appeal, making it a terrific choice for both beauty and usefulness.  Make sure trees you buy are measured from the base up! While this may sound a bit sneaky, the sad truth is some nurseries try to make their trees seem a lot taller by including the roots in the height.  Even worse, others will charge you for a large tree but then hack them down to fit in a smaller & cheaper box. We sell our trees with the height measured from the base up. When you buy a tree from Nature Hills Nursery, it will be the height you paid for after you plant it.  We take pride in delivering the highest quality plants with healthy roots and full, well-established stems and foliage. We offer the largest selection on the internet and you can buy in confidence with our one year plant guarantee. Our trees are always in high demand. Order now before they sell out!

Peach Tree - Loring - Sale Price: $78.50 Peach - Loring, prunus persica 'Loring', is a very attractive, large yellow peach with a hint of red blush. It has very firm, melting yellow flesh with excellent flavor. It is freestone and ripens in mid-season about midway between Redhaven and Elberta. It has gained a good reputation as one of the better eating peaches. The peach tree is admired as much for its beauty and fragrant blossoms as it is for its fruit.

At 3 or 4 years of age it begins to bear large crops and reach peak productivity at 8 to 12 years.

This superb, taste test winner requires little or no thinning; excellent for the home orchard.
