Key Features
- Most revered white-fleshed peach variety in the UK

Product Description
Peach ‘Peregrine’ remains one of the finest and most popular peach varieties for UK gardeners. It produces heavy, reliable crops of white-skinned fruits flushed red with exceptionally rich, intense flavour.
The flesh is freestone, meaning it separates easily from the stone, making it perfect for eating fresh as well as using in desserts. In early spring, the tree is covered in masses of dark pink blossoms, giving it strong ornamental appeal.
Best grown in a sunny, sheltered position in well-drained, moderately fertile soil. ‘Peregrine’ is well suited to the UK climate but benefits from protection against peach leaf curl by growing under cover or against a warm wall.
