Peach Amsden

An American-bred white dessert peach variety, Peach Amsden has the great advantage in Ireland of ripening very early. Best in warmer areas, trained against a warm wall outside or in a cold greenhouse, or in a container in a polytunnel. The freestone fruit is medium-sized and greenish-white, flushed red, and the creamy-white, sweet flesh has a very good flavour. The tree is moderately vigorous and a good cropper. Some resistance to peach leaf-curl, but outdoor crops should be protected from rain in winter and early spring, and hand-pollinated.
