Cresthaven peach
USA
Vineyard peach
Late August
This variety was developed by hybridization in Michigan. It is the result of crossing Kalhaven × South Haven 309 (SH 50 × Redhaven), created by Stanley Johnson and J.E. Moulton. It tolerates transport well and is suitable for fresh consumption and industrial processing. Its slightly higher acidity makes it ideal for juice production.
The flesh is juicy, very flavorful, with a slightly sharp, citrusy taste.
The fruit is medium to large, round or sometimes slightly elongated. The skin is moderately fuzzy, bright yellow, with vivid red on the sun-exposed side. 70–80% of the surface is covered with glossy red. The flesh is yellow and moderately firm, and the stone separates easily from the flesh.
Self-pollinating.
Resistant to winter frost and leaf curl (Taphrina). Moderately resistant to bacterial leaf spot (Xanthomonas sp.).
You can purchase seedlings of Peach Cresthaven at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.
Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
