1 "Elberta" Peach Tree (Standard Size) - Best to Plant Now
The plants are dormant, leafless, and carefully lifted from the beds, handled well, and they will be packed as bare root. Order now and all the way through early-Spring. The supply of these trees is good. Ships about 18+ inches... trimmed and nice.
Becoming more popular, the "Elberta" has whitish to light yellow flesh, and makes medium to large sweet fruit in the late Spring and into the Summer. Hardy and juicy, this peach is good for table-fruit, jams and pie, or canning, and cooking. These are self-fertile, but planting more than one, and mixing with other peach trees does increase your chances for fruit. Generally, as the pictures show, the flowers are small pink like other apples. The can get up to 20 feet, but trimming can work well to maintain the shape and size you want. Hardy in most soils, good for Plant Zones 5 to 9, medium watering. They grow best in full sun, but partial shading fine as well. These are hefty and fast growing. Plant them singly or in an orchard, also lines as a border tree. And you can plant these with other peach varieties as a pollinator.
This tree is 2 years old, typical root is nice, may have few fine roots. They are typically a single stem, with the tree varying from 18+ inches tall. Good hardy plants checked before packing.
Yes... they are self-pollinating, but having two or more trees, and/or different varieties, will increase the chances for fruiting. Check our other listings for other varieties, like the Georgia Bell and Red Haven as pollinators.

Plan Early - Order Now - Plant Early... If you can work your ground, plant now. Give the tree time to acclimate to your soil and growing conditions. Waiting for Spring is too late... trees are best planted early-early. Tomatoes and peppers are Spring, trees and plants are best planted while dormant and cool conditions. Ponder this...

Generally plan on this:
If you live in the Southern half of the country, order starting November, and take delivery right away. Plant (or pot) the tree right away. You can plant as long as your ground is not frozen. Put a thick layer of mulch around it. Get planted by mid-April before the warmer weather arrives.
If you live in the Northern half of the country, order during the late Winter, and take delivery early. Pot up your tree and hold it in a dark, cool, moist location, that will get a minimal amount of light and some moisture, but cool enough to keep it dormant until you can plant it outdoors. Plant as soon as your ground thaws. After planting, put a thick layer of mulch around it.
Once you get your plants, open the box and put them in a bucket of water, and plant right away. If you can not plant right away, then pot the plants or/and hold the plants in a cool dark, moist location until they can be planted.
Always best to add a thick mulch layer. Having a thick layer of mulch helps to conserve soil moisture, keeps the weeds down, and helps recycle the nutrients. A thick mulch layer also moderates the soil temperatures, which then reduces the stress on the roots.
