Frost Peach Tree offers the welcome combination of beautiful fruit, showy flowers, and a reputation for resilience in challenging peach country. Its medium to large peaches ripen with bright yellow skin washed in warm red, while the yellow freestone flesh inside is juicy, sweet, and satisfying in the straightforward way a summer peach should be. The crop is delicious fresh and versatile enough for pies, cobblers, canning, and freezing. Before harvest, unusually full double blossoms give the tree ornamental presence in spring, making it attractive even in a visible edible landscape. Frost is especially appealing to gardeners who have dealt with cool, wet springs because it is known for resistance to peach leaf curl. It provides the pleasure of a productive orchard peach with an added measure of confidence where weather and disease pressure can make peaches frustrating.
Frost needs about 700 chill hours and grows in USDA zones 5–9. On Citation rootstock it is semi-dwarf, with harvest generally occurring from mid- to late July, with timing varying by region and season.
Frost is self-fruitful and capable of cropping alone. Another compatible peach may increase pollinator movement through the orchard and support fruit set.
