Florida Prince Peach – Early Harvest, Low Chill Hours
The Florida Prince peach is a favorite among Florida growers for its very low chill hour requirement—just 150 chill hours—making it perfect for warmer climates. Known for its early ripening and delicious flavor, this peach is a popular choice for those who want fresh peaches at the start of the season.
Tree Characteristics:
• Size & Growth: This tree grows to a medium height, typically reaching about 15-20 feet, but can be pruned to maintain a more manageable size of 10-12 feet.
• Fruit Production: Florida Prince is a prolific early-season producer, with fruit ripening as early as late April in Florida.
• Self-Fertile: Yes, the tree is self-fertile, but planting multiple trees can increase yields.
Fruit Qualities & Harvest Time:
• Ripening Season: Florida Prince ripens in late April to early May, one of the earliest peach varieties.
• Flesh Color: Yellow-fleshed with excellent flavor and juiciness.
• Stone Type: Semi-freestone, meaning the flesh is partially attached to the pit but relatively easy to separate.
Care Tips: Plant in the coolest area of your yard for the best performance. Florida Prince thrives in full sun with well-drained soil. Regular pruning helps manage the tree’s size and ensures good air circulation.
