• »  Grandpa's Golden Monarch™ Peach is exclusive to Grandpa's Orchard!

Grandpa's Golden Monarch™ is an early ripening peach that ripens 10-14 days before Redhaven. It has good size, excellent flavor, and is more freestone than most early varieties.

Granpa's Golden Monarch™ is exclusive to Grandpa's Orchard. Grandpa grew it on the farm years ago and was impressed with its flavor and productivity. It is a sport of Redhaven discovered in Washington and introduced by one of Grandpa's good nursery friends.

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.
