Peach Tree - White Lady - Sale Price: $78.50 The White Lady Peach tree is among the best of the new low acid, high sugar, fresh market white peaches. The red-skinned fruits are medium to large, very firm, and are freestone. It was one of the top scoring varieties at a blind fruit tasting event. The average fruit diameter is 2.5 to 3.0 inches. The harvest season begins in late July. Eighty to ninety-five % of the fruit surface is covered with a dark pinkish red over a cream background. The White Lady does not need a pollinator to produce fruit. Most grocery stores carry yellow peaches and not white peaches. So, grow your own White lady peaches because they are sweeter! White peaches ripen faster than yellow peaches. This tree needs 800 chill hours. This plant produces stunningly beautiful pink flowers which makes it a spring ornamental tree along with its fruit bearing capabilities!

Elberta - Sale Price: $78.50 Spring Color and Abundant Fruit on Dwarf Peach Tree The Elberta Peach (Prunus persica 'Elberta') is certainly one of the most beautiful, and useful peach trees you could own.  Plant a row of them along your driveway to amaze your neighbors with their scarlet spring display and August harvest.  Place a single one near a window or patio and watch as your little peaches grow and ripen. The Elberta is prized for its fruit being especially large and great for both eating right off the tree or canning.  Imagine walking across your yard in August to see your Elberta laden with fruit.  Pick one of the heavy peaches and feel it fill your hand with its delightfully fuzzy exterior.  The peach itself is so lovely with it red-blushed yellow skin that it’s almost a shame to bite into its sweet, juicy flesh.  When eating this peach your teeth will rarely graze the pit as it has one of the smallest pit to fruit ratios of any peach.  If you decide to can or juice some of your peaches, the freestone nature of this peach ensures that the pit will pop right out.  The Elberta is known for bearing a large crop, so you’ll be able to share your good fortune each year with friends and neighbors. The Elbert is a dwarf, growing to 15-30 feet with equal spread, so it won’t take up too much of your planting space.  It’s incredibly disease resistant and quite adaptable to various soil types, so you won’t have to fuss with costly sprays or fertilizers.  The fragrant spring flowers add to this little tree's appeal, making it a terrific choice for both beauty and usefulness.  Make sure trees you buy are measured from the base up! While this may sound a bit sneaky, the sad truth is some nurseries try to make their trees seem a lot taller by including the roots in the height.  Even worse, others will charge you for a large tree but then hack them down to fit in a smaller & cheaper box. We sell our trees with the height measured from the base up. When you buy a tree from Nature Hills Nursery, it will be the height you paid for after you plant it.  We take pride in delivering the highest quality plants with healthy roots and full, well-established stems and foliage. We offer the largest selection on the internet and you can buy in confidence with our one year plant guarantee. Our trees are always in high demand. Order now before they sell out!
