Prunus persica 'Flamin'Fury(R) PF- 24-007'
  • Summary
  • Hardiness Zone & More

Flamin'Fury® PF 24-007™ peach is an extremely large freestone peach that features an 80% red blush. Resistant to bacterial spot, this tree requires very little pruning or thinning and yields few split pits. PF 24-007 ripens in mid-season, and is the holder of a Guiness Book of World Records title for being the largest peach!

Grandpa was also good friends with the breeder of all the famous Flamin'Fury® peaches, who was another peach grower living near Grandpa and a cousin to the breeder of the Stellar® peaches. Paul Friday, thus "PF", continues to select peaches to this day, which Grandpa's son helps to evaluate every summer, looking for the best new peach varieties.

Almost all peaches are self-fertile and require no pollinators. They will set heavy crops on single trees, which need heavy and aggressive thinning early in the season for best fruit size. Maintain good vigor in peaches by pruning every year, and fertilizing moderately. Aim for 1-3 feet of new growth a year. Fertilize early in the season, so that growth is well hardened off before fall and winter cold weather.
