DESCRIPTION: The fruit is exactly what you'd want in a peach—the skin develops a lovely red blush, the fruit is soft and juicy. The pits are "clingstone" which means they're better attached to the flesh and harder to remove, however the benefit of clingstone peaches is that they tend to have a juicier, sweeter flavor than freestone peaches. Flordaking's delightful taste is the prime example. Great for preserves, desserts and eating fresh. Clingstone peaches also ripen early in the season. In the first couple of years, you can enjoy an incredibly showy flower display on this tree. Then in about 3-4 years, it'll begin delivering tasty fruit. Self-pollinating.
