CRESTHAVEN PEACH TREE
'Cresthaven' Peach is a premier late-season yellow freestone peach tree, highly regarded for its exceptional flavor and reliable performance in the home orchard or commercial setting. Its fruit is large and firm with a beautiful, deep red blush over a golden-yellow ground color, making it as visually stunning as it is delicious. Known for its sweet, juicy, and melting flesh, 'Cresthaven' is nearly fuzzless and resists browning, which makes it an ideal for fresh eating, canning, or freezing. It is moderately vigorous and self-fertile, though it benefits from the presence of other peach varieties to ensure a maximum harvest.
To ensure 'Cresthaven' Peach tree thrives, plant it in a location that receives full sun and has deep, well-draining soil to prevent "wet feet," which can lead to root issues. It is notably cold-hardy and shows a good degree of resistance to bacterial spot, but it still requires a regular pruning schedule in late winter to maintain an open center for light penetration and air circulation.
