Babcock Peach

The Babcock peach tree is an old favorite from Berkeley, California dating back almost a hundred years to 1923. The Babcock peach is a white-fleshed freestone, sweet and juicy, aromatic, low acid. Babcock peach tree is widely adapted to many climates because of low chill requirements, but unlike other low chill fruits does not bloom early. It's thought to be a cross between the Strawberry peach tree and Peentau peach tree. Please see below for further information on our Babcock peach trees for sale.
