Rising Star

A sweet peach balanced with a slightly tart flavor.  This is the second peach of the season for us to pick and tends to be small in size, but large in flavor.  A deep red, yellow fleshed variety.  It can cling to the pit, but does come free when it is fully ripe.  This is another peach from the Fruit Acres breeding program in Michigan.  All the peaches in their breeding program have “star” in the name.  Picks in late July.
