Autumnstar® Peach on Nemaguard (Spring 2025)


A large, high quality, late-season peach.

These trees are vigorous, productive, and hardy. Autumnstar® shows good resistance to bacterial spot and canker. Fruit thinning is necessary, as peaches crop heavily. Peaches are self-fertile and do not require the presence of a second variety for pollination.

Ripening in early September (about 40 days after Redhaven), this is an attractive large peach, 60-80% crimson over yellow. The fruit is freestone and of high quality. The flesh is yellow and firm, making Autumnstar® a great peach for the home gardener and commercial production.

Autumnstar® is a member of the "Stellar" series, all of which have the word "star" in their names, from the private breeding program of Jim Friday in Michigan.
