CALANDA peach.

[URL=https://i.imgur.com/eELfiJw.jpeg] [/URL] Friends from Spain visited and brought us some calanda peaches, Mrs El.c. saved a stone , dried it then planted it.

About 5 years later we have a tree loaded with little peaches.

We had to remove about 100+ because it was overloaded, we now have about 70 on the tree ripening.

As this is the first time it has flowered we are quite amazed that it is carrying fruit.

MediumRoastSteam They have to be about 90 mm when they are ready, still have to wait ??? Giphy - Ice Cream Eating GIF

What a beautiful tree, I can’t believe it has fruited already from a stone, well done!

Is it south facing? We had a fan trained peach but it lasted 2 years against a west facing fence. The plumb we replaced it with has been prolific, although it has attracted hornets lol.
