About the Carolina Belle Peach

Experience the mouthwatering goodness of the Carolina Belle Peach, the epitome of summertime delight in your garden. Renowned for its exceptional fruit that is perfect for crafting honey-sweet peach preserves, this tree promises a delectable experience for every peach enthusiast. The Carolina Belle boasts large, 3-inch peaches that have garnered rave reviews for their outstanding taste and texture.

The fruit’s allure is further enhanced by its brilliant red skin, encasing creamy white flesh that bursts with a full, rich flavor. Considered a new and improved version of the beloved Belle of Georgia, the Carolina Belle Peach Tree originates from Raleigh, North Carolina, where it was carefully bred in 1987. Its lineage ensures it carries the best traits of its predecessors.

How to Grow the Carolina Belle Peach Tree

The Carolina Belle Peach tree is a gardener’s delight, known for its hardiness and ease of care. To cultivate this exceptional tree, choose a sunny spot in well-drained soil. Plant it in early spring, allowing it to establish strong roots before summer. Regular watering, especially during dry spells, ensures optimal fruit development.

With its natural resistance to bacterial leaf spot, the Carolina Belle remains healthy and vigorous. It features a freestone characteristic, meaning the fruit easily separates from the pit, simplifying your peach preparations. The tree’s self-pollinating nature further simplifies the growing process, requiring no additional pollinators for fruit production.

Marking the height of peach season, the Carolina Belle ripens in mid-August, offering an abundance of luscious peaches to savor, bake, or preserve. Experience the joy of cultivating your own delicious peaches with the Carolina Belle Peach tree in your garden.
