Peaches

Redhaven

The cultivar was created in 1930 in Michigan, USA, by crossing ‘Halehaven’ × ‘Kalhaven’. It was imported into Bulgaria in 1963. It has been the main standard cultivar for a long time. The tree is moderate in growth, with a broad spreading crown. The flowers are bell-shaped. Flowering is moderately early and abundant. The cultivar is characterized by high frost resistance. Fruits ripen in late July to early August. They are large with an average weight of 160-180 g. The skin is entirely or partially covered in red overcolour. It is moderately fuzzy and is easily separating from the fruit flesh. The flesh is golden-yellow, juicy, sweet-sour, and with very good taste. The stone is large, dark and free from the fruit flesh. Fruits are suitable for fresh consumption and for processing into canes and nectars.
