The Elberta peach holds its own as one of the most
popular peach trees. Notorious for its sweet,
succulent fruit with the tell-tale blush covering
its skin when perfectly ripe, this tree is a
commercial success in markets and roadside stands
across much of the United States.
It is known to thrive in at least 28 states and is
favored by growers due to its vigorous growth,
steady production of fruit, self-fertile nature
and compact size. The Elberta peach is also available
in dwarf size for urban and suburban locations.
