Redhaven Peach Bareroot

History: Redhaven peaches were created at Michigan State University's South Haven Research Center as part of the Haven series which began in 1924. Redhaven in particular was developed in the 1930s and released in the 1940s, making it the first commercial red-skinned peach variety. It is now one of the most commonly grown peaches in the world.

Why We Grow It: Redhaven is the most popular peach in North America, its sweet fruit being great for just about anything. The fruit is attractive, juicy, and flavourful and is slow to brown. The flesh does not turn brown when cut as quickly as other varieties. To ensure you can enjoy this great peach as much as possible, the tree begins bearing fruit at a young age, bears heavy crops, and the fruit ripens over a prolonged period of time which requires multiple harvests.

        Bare Root Peach Trees
        We are very pleased to be able to offer peach trees to our customers. They are both challenging and rewarding plants to grow. However, due to the unique challenges of growing peach trees, and the increased care required for their success, we regrettably cannot offer our standard 90 day guarantee on peaches. Please inspect your peach trees to your satisfaction when you pick them up at the nursery, or immediately upon arrival if they are shipped. For shipped trees, make your claim within 7 days of receipt of the trees. After 7 days of receipt, you will have been deemed to have accepted the trees in as-is condition.

        Fruit Traits:

        Recommended Use: Fresh eating, cooking, baking

        Fruit Size: Medium to Medium-large

        Storage: Keeps about a week in the fridge

        Harvest: August - Mid

        Tree Traits:

        Canadian Hardiness Zone: 5

        Soil Preferance: Sandy loam, loam, clay loam - nothing very heavy, ideally with good fertility. Prefers average to moist conditions with well-drained soils, avoid planting anywhere that floods for more than two weeks in the spring. Peaches are extra sensitive to 'wet feet', or soils with poor drainage.

        Flowering Time: Late

        Pollination Requirements: Self-pollinating, this variety will produce fruit without a peach tree of a different variety but will produce more and better fruit if one is present

        Sun/Shade Requirements: Full sun (approx. 8-10 hours of sun daily)

        General Growth Habit: Moderately vigorous and precocious with a spreading growth pattern, produces heavy crops. Resistant to bacterial leaf spot and peach leaf curl. Requires multiple pickings since fruit ripens over a longer period of time.

        Shipping: Every year we ship thousands of plants across Canada. We carefully bag roots in damp sawdust, then box them and send them out via courier. CLICK HERE to see our shipping policy.

        Pick-up: We also have thousands of trees picked up from our nursery each year. The pick-up options is free, though you must wait until you have been emailed a confirmation that your order is ready to pick up, which will have further information such as hours, locations, etc.

        Un-grafted plants (berries, seedlings and vines) are graded by year. We follow industry standard. Species specific details will soon be updated to give you a clearer idea of size, as there can be a very large variation by species.
