Contender Peach Tree - Bare Root (Spring 2025)

Contender is the modern gold standard for cold hardy peach trees that thrive in northern environments. 

Tolerant to disease and excellent for eating fresh, freezing or canning. 

Freestone peach so that the fruit easily falls away from the pit (seed). 

Fruit is medium to large, sweet and juicy. 

Trees are reliable and abundant producers.

Grafted onto Bailey rootstock, the industry standard for cold hardy peach trees.  Originating from Iowa, Bailey is reliable, slightly dwarfing and widely adapted.

Peach trees are self-fertile (Trees don't require more than one tree to produce fruit, but having a second to improve pollination can increase the amount of fruit produced by the trees.)
