Description

The Babcock Peach is a celebrated heirloom white peach renowned for its exquisite, melt-in-your-mouth quality and legendary flavor. A true taste of summer, its blushed skin conceals snow-white flesh that is supremely juicy, sweet, and almost devoid of acidity. This low-chill variety is a champion for mild-winter climates, producing generous crops of fruit that must be tree-ripened to achieve their ethereal, perfumed sweetness and soft, velvety texture. For those who cherish the classic, aromatic white peach experience, Babcock remains the gold standard.
