Description

Snow Beauty is widely regarded as one of the finest white peaches for fresh eating. It combines elegant sweetness, smooth texture, and striking appearance into a peach that feels genuinely special at harvest.

Ripening late in the season, Snow Beauty develops creamy white flesh beneath a deep red blush, with a low-acid profile that highlights sweetness rather than sharpness. It’s an excellent choice for growers who value eating quality above all else and want a white peach that finishes the season strong.

Overview

  • Late-season white peach with rich, low-acid sweetness.
  • Freestone fruit with excellent fresh-eating quality.
  • Beautifully blushed fruit with smooth texture.
  • Ripens after many standard peach varieties.
