The Flavorich Peach is one of the very earliest peaches to ripen. In warmer zones you will be picking in the middle of May, and enjoying the first peaches of the season when they are still scarce, and at premium prices. The large clingstone fruits have light yellow flesh and a dark red skin, and the perfect balance of rich sweetness with a gentle tang of acidity. The large pink flowers appear at the beginning of May, and this vigorous tree will soon be delivering you a big harvest of delicious fruit.
Only 700 chilling hours are needed to succeed with the Flavorich Peach, so it grows through the South almost to the Gulf. Plant your tree in full sun, in light, well-drained soil. Prune to develop an open, vase-shaped crown with about 5 major limbs, and thin the fruit while it is still small, to give yourself large fruits of top quality.
