Bonanza Patio Peach

The Bonanza Patio Peach is the answer when you want delicious home-grown fruit, but only have limited space. This bushy little tree grows no more than 6 feet tall and wide when planted in the garden, and just 3 or 4 feet tall when grown in a pot. It has a gorgeous spring show of fragrant pink flowers, followed by peaches that have a yellow skin with a red blush, limited peach fuzz, and sweet, juicy yellow flesh. This slip-stone variety is easy to eat out of hand, and it ripens from the middle of July, making it perfect for summer eating on the patio.

• Delicious full-sized peaches on a small bush
• Juicy and sweet yellow slip-stone variety
• Suitable for the garden or in pots
• Self-fertile, so one tree carries a big crop
• Needs some attention but the rewards are worth it

Grow your Bonanza Patio Peach in full sun, in rich, well-drained soil in the garden, or ordinary potting soil if planting it in a pot. Use a pot with drainage holes, and fertilizer regularly for the best results. This tree is hardy all the way into zone 5, and it should be kept outdoors in winter, because it needs temperatures below 45 degrees over the winter to develop properly. It needs only limited pruning, and some basic pest control will give you the best results.
