As the name suggests Amsden June is a very early-ripening peach, likely to be ready to eat in June or early July. It is a good choice if you want to grow peaches in northern Europe.
The fruit size is a bit smaller than shop-bought imported peaches, but the flavour is good.
The white flesh falls away cleanly from the stone (freestone).
Sorry we have not produced any trees of this variety this season.
Amsden June has some resistance to peach-leaf curl, but it is still a good idea to protect the tree from infection in late winter / early spring - covering the tree with a fleece is a good method
Amsden June originates from the USA and was discovered in the 19th century.
