Prunus persica 'DIXIRED' yellow flesh peach tree

Dixired is an American peach tree variety. It produces large, almost perfectly round fruit with golden yellow and red skin. The flesh is aromatic, very good, mildly sweet and incredibly juicy which means that it is not free-stone. Perfect for juices. Suitable for warmer areas only.

We suggest planting peach trees in free space so it can feel cold, spring breeze which will delay flowering and thus prevent the flowers from frost damage. It likes slightly alkaline soil, moist but well drained. Do not transplant bare-root trees in autumn, only in spring. Pruning is possible in early spring after flowering or in mid-late August after harvesting the fruit – reduce long branches to 30-50% of their size and remove weak ones. The best yield however is from an unpruned tree which grows naturally. Hardy to about -23°C (USDA zone 6).
