Description

The listing, Vining Peach tastes like Mango--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

They will do well up to zone 5. Above that ,it is iffy due to a shorter growing season.

I don't think they would have a problem in zone 9..It gets hot here in Texas, too.

Ok so can you eat these raw or are they for pies and stuff? cant seem to find that answer online

Feb 18th, 2014 at 9:23:34 AM PST by

They are grown mainly for pies and preserves. ..I don't think the sugar content is high enough to make them enjoyable as a real peach...They are actually in the cantaloupe family..
Have a god day,

what climate zones do they prefer?

Feb 16th, 2014 at 3:43:15 PM PST by

They should be fine in zones6-9 easily. I would venture to say "the further south, the better"
