Dwarf Sunset Peach™ - Red Leaf Dwarf Peach
The Plant
Queenslanders and Sydneysiders - your prayers have been answered....we have another fruit tree for you!
The beautiful Dwarf Sunset Peach, along with our Dwarf Sunset Nectarine is PlantNet's newest line of unique plants to be released to the home gardeners of Australia. They are also part of our new Backyard Beauties Range.
The Sunset Peach has beautiful red leaves throughout the year. The plant grows to approximately 80cm x 80cm. It has high density flowering and double pink peach blossom in spring. It produces full sized, white flesh peaches.
The sweet white fleshed fruit matures late in November / early December so you can avoid the rush of going to the supermarket to get your early season Summerfruit - just grow your own!
The Sunset Peach is suited more to the warmer areas of Australia and can be grown in any sub-tropical environment from Rockhampton in Queensland to temperate regions within Victoria.
The Sunset Peach is absolutely perfect for pots on the patio, balcony or deck. The plant can handle frost during winter, however, if you are in an area that is prone to late frosts you would be better suited to leave it in a protected environment until flowering has finished to ensure you get the best fruit returns.
Great plant to get the kids involved in growing their own fruit in the garden! Why not get the pigeon pair and grab a Dwarf Sunset Nectarine while you are at it?
