About the Blushingstar® Peach Tree

Blushingstar® Peach is a standout late-season disease resistant peach tree prized for its reliability, beauty, and exceptional eating quality. This cold-hardy, self-pollinating fruit tree is a heavy bearer, producing generous harvests of attractive peaches year after year with minimal fuss.

The freestone fruit ripens in mid-August, extending the harvest season beyond earlier varieties.
