Stark® Early White Giant™ Peach Tree

The Early white Giant is a reliable tree for fruit each year. I has a fruity flavor a little lighter than the Red Haven. Sugar/sweetness content is high. The only problem we have had, is that it puts on more fruit than the branches can handle. Early White Giant is a large peach, often 4 inches in diameter. If you decide to go with it, I would suggest to monitor the weight on the branches and thin accordingly. We have enjoyed ours for several years.

Sweet, white-fleshed peaches like this one can be used in pies.

I just discovered I have this same pest, and I’ve been doing a lot of research on how to combat it. The tricky thing is timing: the only way you can successfully kill the caterpillars is before they’ve bored into the branch, so you have to time any spraying to catch them before they do that. Unfortunately, there isn’t an easy answer to this. All the resources I’ve found suggest to set up a pheromone trap (you can find them by googling) specific to the Oriental fruit moth and wait until you catch your first adult. Once you do, you start counting degree days, which is just a fancy name for the days with temps between 45 and 90F (the temps are specific to the pest). All the sprays are then timed based on the number of degree days (DD). It is the timing that is apparently more important than exactly what you are spraying with. I’m personally planning on using Dipel, which uses Bt. It sounds complicated, but it’s really no more complicated than watching a trap and then counting days from there. I’d do some googling to find more specifics as to how many DD to wait between sprays, but you do have to do it several times. This nasty little bugger can apparently have up to five life cycles per season!

Thank you for your question. Because weather and soil conditions vary so much from year to year and even within your zone, it's best to think of your planting time as a range of favorable conditions instead of an exact time.

You can plant new plants and trees: 1) when the ground is not frozen, 2) when daytime temperatures are above freezing (32ºF) and below 90ºF, and 3) when extreme weather (blizzard, hail, torrential rain, etc.) is not in the forecast. Be sure to keep plants watered if you're transplanting in warm and/or dry weather.

here in Utah zone 7A they bloomed in April...about the middle of April...when they bloom for you depends on your zone and what kind of winter it was...

It is my absolute favorite and I have the same question. My oldest tree died and all the other peach trees, while very good, cannot match it. I am on the waiting list and have been for way too long.

I believe they are talking about, the tree of heaven. I heard of them ..
