About Bonanza
Bonanza is a genetic dwarf peach with full-size yellow-fleshed freestone fruit on a compact tree. It is intended for patios, containers, and small gardens.
Growing Bonanza Peach
Bonanza is self-fertile but still requires full sun, winter chilling, and regular thinning. Prune lightly to maintain its compact form, protect it from peach leaf curl, and harvest when fruit has yellow ground color and slight softness.
