Our Variety Assessment

Its strengths, growing requirements and the conditions in which it performs best.

Avalon Pride is one of the more reassuring peaches for outdoor cultivation because of its partial resistance to peach leaf curl. Its red-blushed, yellow-fleshed fruit is juicy and flavourful when given sufficient sunshine. We would favour it over a more susceptible cultivar in a low-input garden. It is not immune, however, and its early blossom still benefits from protection against frost.

Description

Avalon Pride is an early-season yellow-fleshed peach with a good flavour. It is one of the most resistant varieties to peach-leaf curl, a fungal infection which is endemic in many parts of Europe.

Pick the fruits when they are still firm and allow to ripen indoors.

Like many peaches Avalon Pride has very attractive pink blossom.
