Belle of Georgia Peach Tree

The Belle of Georgia Peach Tree (Prunus persica 'Belle of Georgia') is a classic peach variety known for its large, juicy, and fragrant fruit with a creamy white flesh and a sweet, slightly tangy flavor. The peaches have a smooth, velvety skin with a pale yellow and red blush. Belle of Georgia trees thrive in USDA Zones 5-9 and require full sun, well-drained soil, and regular watering. They are self-pollinating but may produce better yields when planted with another peach variety for cross-pollination. The tree typically grows to about 15-20 feet tall and benefits from annual pruning to maintain shape and promote healthy fruit production. While generally resistant to many common peach diseases, Belle of Georgia trees should be monitored for pests such as peach leaf curl and aphids.
