Found near Allentown, PA, these peaches are exceptional for having adapted well enough to local conditions to establish a long-standing, self-seeding feral population.
The Catasauqua peach population includes 2 phenotypes: trees that produce large fruits suitable for fresh eating, and trees that produce small, green, undesirable fruit. The Small Fruit types make up the majority of the population, growing vigorously and re-seeding prolifically, indicating they have serious potential for use as rootstock.
Note that all the peach trees offered here are seedlings, meaning that their individual traits could vary significantly.
