About RISINGSTAR
The Risingstar™ peach tree produces beautiful early-season fruit with a rich red blush and juicy, yellow flesh. Bred in Canada for cold-hardiness and flavor, Risingstar ripens about a week before Redhaven, extending your peach season with consistent, high-quality fruit. Its freestone flesh makes it ideal for fresh eating, baking, and canning. The tree is vigorous, productive, and resistant to leaf curl, thriving in Washington’s sunny, dry summers and cool nights.
