| Botanical Name | Prunus persica 'Flordaprince' |
| Description | 'Flordaprince' is one of the most widely planted low-chill peaches in the world. Specifically bred for mild-winter climates like the Houston metro area, it is exceptionally early to ripen, often ready for harvest by late April. The fruit features a melting yellow flesh with a beautiful 80% red blush over a gold background. It is a precocious variety, meaning it often begins bearing fruit just two years after planting in Willis landscapes. |
| Exposure | Full Sun |
| Height x Width | 12-15 feet tall x 12-15 feet wide |
| Water | Requires regular, deep watering, particularly during the fruit swell stage. Avoid soggy roots by planting in well-draining soil; mulching is highly beneficial for moisture retention during the intense Willis summer. |
| Zones | 8 - 10 |
| Chill Hours | 150 hours |
| Harvest Time | Late April to Early May |
| Deer Resistance | Low |
