Description

The listing, Trailing Vine Peaches -12 Fresh Seeds has ended.

They are the same size, color and food value as tree peaches. Vine Peaches make excellent preserves and pies, and have a vine-ripe flavor and texture much like a mango. It's an easy plant to grow, with fruit maturing on spreading vines in about 80 days. Train on a trellis, or let it grow ont a fence.
Plant after danger of frost in hills 4 to 6 feet apart. Plant seed not over 1/2 inch deep 4 to 6 to the hill, pressing soil firmly over them. When plants are well established thin to 3 to each hill. Seed can also be started indoors for an earlier harvest. Treat yourself to an unusual fruit!...Packet includes 12 fresh seeds.

Questions & Comments

I just adore you Rick and am having adoption papers drawn up! You're a true gardener & gentleman. So tell me, what size are all these fruit trees? Seedlings or full grown?

Most of what I have planted thus far are 5 gallon, 2-3 year trees---about 5 feet in height. The cuttings I mentioned are mere 8" pruned shoots from good other tree stock. ...Thank you so much for the kind words--I appreciate you, also young lady, but I am probably old enough to be your grandpaw..LOL...Much to old to adopt...hahaha

ooowee Rick, I see my girl Tonja has found your fun vine! Now you have two seasoned shoppers after the same Blue-Light special...which is of course, the equivalent of "Woman's Super Bowl"... ;0]

ps Rick..I'm a Southern Bell and we make our own rules about most everything, including grandpaw adoptions...lol. Also, why not list your 8" shoots on the live Listia plants section? Just have buyer pay shipping: "If It Fit's It Ships" & the P.O. gives you the perfect boxes for free. Fruit tree's are very expensive on the outside and buyers in that section know it. Count me in if you do!!!

Thank you so very much for being such a nice and courteous buyer. I really appreciate you more than I can say.

Yes, I managed to find a few more. I am keeping one packet for our own garden( which is filing up fast). I bought three more fruit trees today... That makes 18 I have planted so far this season....I'll grow the vine peaches on the fence, since the horses have been moved. Now, to find spots for all the plants I am rooting out. I have a dozen Kieffer Pears, 14 Prairie Spy apples, about a dozen each of 3 kinds of thornless blackberries, and more in he works. Oh well, I am disabled, and it will give me plenty to do to bide my time here each day...."busy hands", you know.
Regards,
Rick

do they taste at all like peaches ?

Jan 31st, 2014 at 7:52:10 PM PST by

I am afraid not--The listing says they taste more like mangos, which is not a bad thing..Thanks for inquiring.

Just fanned you, also...I like your member pic, too.

will they grow in zone 5 NY state?

Feb 2nd, 2014 at 12:16:41 PM PST by

Given their heritage, I seriously doubt it. They would have to potted and brought in during very cold weather.

Feb 2nd, 2014 at 1:46:56 PM PST by

Ok thank you for letting me know.....I thank you for your honesty

Feb 2nd, 2014 at 1:48:51 PM PST by
