Description
This 3-in-1 Combination Peach Tree brings together three of the most reliable and leaf curl–resistant peaches—Frost, Salish Summer (Q-1-8), Indian Free, and Muir—onto one vigorous semi-dwarf tree. With extended bloom periods, staggered ripening times, and exceptional flavor diversity, this multi-graft peach provides a long season of high-quality fruit even in cooler or high-disease-pressure climates.
Frost and Salish Summer (Q-1-8) are especially valued in the Pacific Northwest for their strong resistance to peach leaf curl, one of the region’s biggest challenges. Indian Free contributes brilliant red flesh and exceptional tangy-sweet flavor, while Muir offers old-fashioned sweetness and excellent fresh-eating quality. Together, they make a resilient and flavorful backyard orchard in a single tree.
Grafted onto Lovell rootstock, this tree develops a strong framework, excellent cold-hardiness, and dependable fruiting. All varieties are self-fertile, so no pollination partner is required.
