Grower: Kelly

Year: 2015

Accession: 195

Seed Source: Seed received from Tatiana Kouchnareva, Anmore, BC.

Comments:

2015 Production was slow to start, but really sped up come the later half of the season. Good fruit set in higher heat, but doesn't like to be too dry. Fruit has very thick skin, but fruit is sweet and juicy. Fruit has a slight fuzz over it. Harvested over 50 fruit. Approx 2.75 lb/plant.

Seems very similar to 'Wapsipinicon Peach' - I'm wondering if this is in fact the same variety, and 'Wapsipinicon Peach' got renamed incorrectly because they seem very close.
