Growing a tree from seed is an amazing experience.
9.19.2011: "I bought some Iowa peach seeds from you in April of 2008. This is the first year that I have had a crop of peaches. As I write, I have my first batch of peach cobbler in the oven. They are the best-tasting peaches that I have had this year. Thank you again for turning me on to such a yummy peach. I am keeping the seeds so I can pass them out to my friends." -Tammie R.
Commonly called Iowa White or Indian White Freestone, these native heirloom peach trees are rare, beautiful and productive. For more info. & photos write: ericka@catnipfarm.com and click "Visit our Listing" to see them bloom! Plant seeds ANYTIME in fall or early winter,stratification occurs naturally or you can chill them. Complete planting and care instructions are included.
This special tree grew on Midwestern homesteads for generations. At farmers' market people often remember the peaches from their grandparent's farm and are thrilled to find them again. I grow and propagate this antique peach species because I want to save it.
A unique variety, it doesn't self-pollinate so trees can be planted 2-3 together and pruned as 1, or spaced 10'-20' apart. Ideal for habitat restoration and wildlife, very productive, masses of beautiful pink flowers in spring & creamy, fine-textured, delicious fruit, perfect to eat fresh, can or bake ~ great flavor.
This peach isn't "truck fruit", ie: one can't find a peach this good at a store!
