5 CHUXAY GARDEN Contender Peach Tree Seeds - Fresh Sweet Fruit, Non-GMO, High Yield

The Contender peach is a cold-hardy variety known for its ability to thrive in regions with temperatures well below zero. Developed in Raleigh, NC and introduced in 1988, this peach tree, part of the prunus persica family, is perfect for northern orchards where it consistently yields large crops of sweet, juicy medium-to-large fruit. The yellow flesh of the Contender peach is ideal for fresh eating, canning, or freezing, and its freestone characteristic makes the flesh easy to separate from the pit.

In the spring, the tree blooms with an abundance of pink blossoms and is self-pollinating, although having another pollinator nearby may increase the size of the crop. With a hardiness zone of 4-8, the Contender peach is suitable for growing in a variety of climates.

To grow the Contender peach, place several seeds or pits 3-4′ deep into a pot or directly into the ground in the autumn and water well. Throughout the winter, only water when the soil is completely dry, but be sure to water deeply as temperatures warm. By spring, seedlings should emerge, ready to grow into healthy peach trees.

Peaches are a great source of fiber and vitamin C, as well as containing vitamin A and beta-carotene. Grow the Contender peach from seed and enjoy the experience of watching it thrive with your family.
