Buy Flordacrest Peach Trees for sale at Advanced Nursery Growers in DeFuniak Springs, Florida. Flordacrest Peach, botanically known as Prunus persica ‘Flordacrest’, is a low-chill yellow peach tree known for its early harvest, bright yellow flesh, attractive red blush, and good performance in North Florida and other warm Southern climates. Flordacrest is a University of Florida peach variety that was developed for areas where lower chill fruit trees are needed. With a chill requirement of about 350 chill hours, it is a good choice for North Florida, the Florida Panhandle, South Alabama, and nearby Gulf Coast areas where many traditional high-chill peaches may not be dependable. The fruit has yellow melting flesh with a bright yellow ground color and an attractive red blush. Flordacrest peaches are flavorful and useful for fresh eating, cobblers, baking, preserves, jams, desserts, and backyard recipes. Since this variety is semi-clingstone, the fruit may not release from the pit as cleanly as a true freestone peach, especially when firm. Flordacrest Peach Trees are a good fit for home orchards, edible landscapes, backyard fruit gardens, homesteads, small farms, and Southern fruit plantings. Like most peaches, they need full sun, well-drained soil, good air movement, annual pruning, fruit thinning when needed, and regular fruit tree care for best production.
