I have a Reliance peach tree next to a Elberta peach tree, and both have lots of peaches on them, the Reliance peach tree has smaller fruit and the Elberta peach tree has large fruit, I planted these small in March of 2004 and they do very well next to each other and the wild life love them as do I. Coming from Colorado Springs, Colorado. September 2009
Elberta peach trees are one of the latest to ripen. In Utah they are usually picked mid-September. This year (2012) because of the drought mine were ripe over Labor Day weekend.
its about as soft as a ripe bannana
Elberta
Elberta would be Elberta.
No, only if it gets pollenated, then it will turn to fruit weeks or months later depending on the conditions.
no you can not clone a peach tree
A peach grows on a peach tree.
pine, palm, peach,
Nectarines
No; an Elberta will pollinate itself. if you want a better fruit set , plant another type of peach tree that blooms the same time as your Elberta. you will get cross pollination and inturn will get more peaches.
