About CRESTHAVEN
The Cresthaven peach tree is a proven performer that produces large, freestone fruit with golden-yellow flesh and a deep red blush. Its firm texture and balanced sweetness make it perfect for canning, freezing, and fresh eating. Ripening just after Redhaven, Cresthaven extends the peach season with a flavorful, late-summer harvest. This variety is prized for its cold-hardiness, strong resistance to bacterial spot, and reliable crops even in challenging weather, making it ideal for Washington’s sunny, dry climate.
