Neutral Farmerdill On Mar 30, 2006, Farmerdill from Augusta, GA (Zone 8a) wrote:

An early ripening, high quality disease resistant variety discovered near Issaquah, Washington. Superior flavor to Frost peach, ripening about one month earlier- in mid July. Good peach leaf curl resistance. Medium to large sized fruit is semi-freestone, suited for canning, pies and especially fresh eating. Yellow flesh with a prominent red blush on the skin. A.K.A. Croft. Self fruitful. Patented.
