Tropic Snow Peach Tree

Tropic Snow Peach Tree

White flesh, low-acid, sweet.

The potted Tropic Snow Peach tree is a semi-dwarf sized variety that produces medium-sized, round peaches with a white, creamy flesh that is sweet and juicy. This variety is highly prized for its rich, complex flavor, which is a balance of sweet and tart notes with hints of tropical fruit. The fruit has a firm texture, making it ideal for baking, canning, or eating fresh. The Tropic Snow Peach is an excellent choice for growers in warmer climates as it is known to be highly disease-resistant.

Tropic Snow Peaches are self-fertile meaning that having another variety as a companion is not required. This tree makes an excellent pollinator for other varieties. This tree requires full sun exposure and regular watering to thrive. With proper care, it can grow up to around 15 feet tall and wide.

The Tropic Snow Peach tree is a relatively new variety that was developed by the University of Florida in the late 20th century. It is the result of cross-breeding several peach varieties to create a fruit that would perform well in Florida's warm, humid climate. One of the most interesting aspects of this variety is its name. Despite being called the Tropic Snow Peach, it is not actually native to tropical regions. The name is a reference to the fruit's snowy-white flesh, which is reminiscent of winter snow.

In terms of culinary uses, Tropic Snow Peaches are incredibly versatile. They can be eaten fresh, baked into pies, made into jams and preserves, or grilled alongside meats for a savory-sweet flavor. The fruit is also high in nutrients, including vitamin C, potassium, and fiber, making it a healthy addition to any diet.
