Glohaven peach is easily one of the best all-around peach trees to grow, whether you’re growing it for your family to eat or for the wildlife (my deer gobble down peaches). This peach tree produces large, sweet peaches with excellent flavor, ripening in August, well-suited for fresh eating or canning. Glohaven produces a crop of peaches annually when grafted onto Bailey roots. The tree is vigorous and able to grow in less desirable locations, and is self-pollinating. The Glohaven peach tree has some good resistance to brown rot, a fungal disease that can cause significant damage to many peaches before they are ripe. They are one of the more cold-hardy peaches in this country, originating from Michigan State University. Glohaven peach is grafted to Bailey roots, the most cold-hardy roots we can grow peaches on, making this a great all-around tree for the northern climates. The tree will reach a mature height of 20′ and is suitable for plant hardiness zones 5-8.

Glohaven
Glohaven peach is easily one of the best all-around peach trees to grow, whether you’re growing it for your family to eat or for the wildlife (my deer gobble down peaches). This peach tree produces large, sweet peaches with excellent flavor, ripening in August, well-suited for fresh eating or canning. Glohaven produces a crop of peaches annually when grafted onto Bailey roots. The tree is vigorous and able to grow in less desirable locations, and is self-pollinating. The Glohaven peach tree has some good resistance to brown rot, a fungal disease that can cause significant damage to many peaches before they are ripe. They are one of the more cold-hardy peaches in this country, originating from Michigan State University. Glohaven peach is grafted to Bailey roots, the most cold-hardy roots we can grow peaches on, making this a great all-around tree for the northern climates. The tree will reach a mature height of 25′ and is suitable for plant hardiness zones 5-8.
The Glohaven peach is made by using plant tissue from the original tree and grafting it onto new roots. This process essentially provides you with an identical tree to the one depicted in the picture and description.
TREE SIZE
2-yr 4-6′ (select): The largest size available in peaches. They will be feathered and have our greatest diameter + 3/4”. We will prune the trees back to a shipping height of 66″ with the roots, as our largest box is 66 “x 14″ x 14” and will hold 13 select peach trees. Free local pick-up is available in the surrounding states of Pennsylvania.
POLLINATION FOR GLOHAVEN PEACH TREE
The tree is self-fertile and does not require other peach trees to produce fruit.
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR GLOHAVEN PEACH
Plant all peaches in moist, well-drained soil with a pH between 5.8 and 7. This soil should have adequate nutrient levels for optimal growth and fruit production.
If you have not completed a soil test, click here to improve your soil. Many products can supply your tree with the two most essential nutrients: phosphorus and potassium. However, adjust these nutrients when planting your tree or the prior year, as the soil two feet into the earth has never had any amendments, and these two nutrients are not very mobile.
Per a soil test, if your soil pH is lower than recommended, you can adjust it by mixing a few handfuls of pelletized lime into your soil when planting.
Glohaven requires 6 hours of direct sunlight for growth and fruit production. Space trees 20′ apart and use cages of at least 5′ cut to 7′ 8” to protect your trees. This process will ensure your deer eat your fruit in a few years, not your trees this year.
We also recommend wrapping an aluminum window screen around the base of your tree, using a 2’x 2′ breathable weed mat, and adding 10 gallons of stone to that weed mat.
SHIPPING/PICK UP
Shipping to Plant Hardiness zones 2 – 8 will begin in early March (you select your ship date) and continue until the last Monday in April.

The last week of March or the first week of April is ideal for planting in Pennsylvania. Free local pick-up is also available in the surrounding states.

Returns: We have been shipping plants around the country for quite some time now. We provide
healthy live plants. We take every effort to ensure that your plants are packed in a way that
maintains that health as they arrive to you. We can not be responsible for how plants are handled
when they leave our care or are handled by customers.
Tree care: If you plant your tree up on high dry ground they may need watered through the first
summer, if you plant too low and wet your trees may drown. Be careful of the herbicide you may
use around the tree (read the label). I want you and your trees to succeed but if you don't tube or
cage them the deer will eat your tree that night.
Hours: We do not keep regular hours. If you would like to visit the nursery, just call, send a
message or email. Anyone is more than welcome.
Selected pickup dates: Trees can be picked up in the spring as soon as you can dig in your soil.
Trees need to be picked by the end of April. Before picking up, please contact us letting us know
when you are planning to come so we can have your order ready for you when you arrive.
Shipping: When buying grafted trees, depending on the amount of trees you order will determine
the size box the trees will be shipped in. If you order 8 or fewer two-year-old trees, they will fit into a 66''x10''x10'' box. Ordering 9 to 16 two-year-old trees will fit into a 66''x15''x14'' box. Ordering 16 or more two year old trees will fill into 2 or more boxes, depending on the total amount of trees bought. Trees may need to be professionally pruned to fit in these boxes. Ship dates will be selected by you before completing you order. We ship trees from early March to late April. You should select a ship date that is suitable for the location you are planting your trees. Trees will ship through UPS on Monday’s, Tuesday’s, and Wednesday’s.
You will receive an email notification when your trees ship. When trees arrive, plant as soon as possible. If you cannot, it
would be best to heal them into soil or store in a cool place not allowing roots to freeze but not
allowing the trees to become warm.
If Tree Tube products are the only items you purchase then they will ship as soon as the order is
received. You may have to select a ship date but I can assure you if you are just ordering tree
tubes they will ship immediately. If Tree Tube products are purchased with trees, then they will
ship with the trees.
Due to the cost of shipping there will be a minimum of 4 trees that have to be purchased in order
for checkout to occur. Due to phytosanitary regulations, we do not ship to California. We also do not ship chestnut trees to Washington, Florida or Oregon State. Trees will be packaged correctly to meet the shipping requirements for Idaho and all other states.
