Lord, yes! I'm a little fuzzy, tee hee, on details, but here's the general idea. Use cold pack method with short pressure cooking time. I can't remember whether my mom added sugar to the jar. They are already pretty sweet. She laid the halves carefully in a spiral around the one in the center of the bottom of the jar. And don't throw away the skins and seeds. They make great jelly.
We don't see Elberta much in the market because they don't ship as well as the pretty baseballs painted to look like peaches.
Georgia's first famous peach is known as the "Elberta" peach. Developed in the late 19th century by Samuel H. Rumph in the town of Elberta, this variety gained popularity for its sweet flavor and firm texture, making it ideal for both fresh eating and canning. The Elberta peach played a significant role in establishing Georgia as a prominent peach-producing state.

There are several reasons why an Elberta peach tree may not bloom. It could be due to insufficient chilling hours during winter, which are necessary for flowering; improper pruning that removes flowering buds; or environmental stressors such as drought, pests, or diseases. Additionally, young trees may take a few years before they start to produce blooms. Regular care and appropriate conditions can help encourage blooming in future seasons.
