Tropic Beauty Peach Tree - For Sale from Everglades Farms, Florida

Product Overview:

The Tropic Beauty Peach Tree is a must-have for anyone living in Florida or the Caribbean, thanks to its exceptional adaptability to warm climates. This low-chill peach variety was developed by the University of Florida and Texas A&M in 1989, making it a reliable choice for your garden.

Key Features:

Perfect for Warm Climates: The Tropic Beauty Peach Tree is ideally suited for lower central Florida, upper south Florida, the Florida Keys, and the Caribbean, where it thrives and produces fruit with ease.
Excellent Flavor: The medium-sized, red-skinned peaches are soft with a melting texture and have an outstanding flavor, making them perfect for fresh eating, desserts, and preserves.
Low-Chill Requirements: Requiring only 150 chill units, this variety is well-suited to areas with mild winters, making it an ideal choice for subtropical regions.
Self-Pollinating: This tree is self-pollinating, meaning you don’t need another tree to produce fruit, although having multiple trees can increase yield.
Ripening Season: The fruit ripens between mid-May and June, offering an early summer harvest. The fruit develops a 70% blush over a yellow ground color, adding to its visual appeal.
Cold Hardy: This tree can withstand temperatures as low as 20-25°F, making it resilient in the face of unexpected cold snaps.
Grafted for Success: Our Tropic Beauty Peach Trees are grafted from high-quality fruit-producing trees, ensuring that you receive a tree that is vigorous and ready to produce fruit in just 2-3 years under the right conditions.

Can I grow this tree in a container?

Most fruit trees can be grown in a container. Follow the recommendations below...

Start small with a tree in a 3 or 7 gallon container
Every 6-10 months transplant the tree to a higher capacity container
The ideal container size to grow fruit trees is 10-15 gallons, so you can move it indoors during the winter months, if necessary
Make sure your container has draining holes on the bottom of the container, so that any excess water can drain

How to plant this tree on the ground...

Follow the simple instructions below to plant your tree on the ground...

Choose a sunny area for planting with about 15 feet radius of clear space
Dig a hole on the ground... twice the height of the container, if possible
Do not mix any potting soil, manure, fertilizer or anything with the soil when you plant
Take the tree out of the container by laying in the side and slipping the container off, if may be necessary to push and tap the bottom of the plastic container
It is usually necessary to put some of the removed dirt back into the hole
Bury the root ball so the soil level is the same as it was in the container
Leave a mound around the tree for form a basin, fill with water, washing the soil into any empty pockets around the root ball
Now is the time to fertilize. Be extra careful because trees are very susceptible to burning with excessive fertilizing
Recommended fertilizer: 8-3-9 (or similar), with manganese, iron and zinc. Scatter one level tablespoon per foot of tree height (do not apply fertilizer if the tree is flowering or during cold spells of temperature below 60 degrees)
You can spread mulch around the base of the tree, but leave the trunk area uncovered so the tree can breath. Mulch helps to retain humidity
