TexStar Peach Tree is a  Cold Hardy and Early-Ripening Fruit for Southern Gardens

Sweet, Semi-Clingstone Yellow Peaches from a Reliable Self-Pollinating Variety

The TexStar Peach Tree produces sweet, semi-clingstone peaches with red-blushed skin and yellow flesh. Cold hardy and heat-tolerant, it blooms with pink flowers in spring and ripens fruit by early summer. A self-pollinating, heavy bearer ideal for USDA zones 5–9.

The Texstar Peach Tree was developed by *Texas A&M University as a cold hardy peach variety for home gardeners.

Texas star peach has a red blush fruit that ripens in summer. The blush fruit is semi-clingstone with a yellow flesh and blush centers. 

Before the medium to large-sized fruit ripens to maturity in June, early spring flowers that are pink appear to put on a delightful spring show. 

Peach Texstar is a great self-pollinating peach variety for home gardeners due to the heavy bearing fruit load. There's no need to plant more than 1 for cross-pollination having 2 peach tree varieties in your fruit orchard will help increase the amount of fruit being produced. 

Texas peach fruit is wonderful eaten fresh, canned for later use, or used in baked goods like peach cobbler.

Self-Pollinating Peach Tree Care

Grow this cold hardy peach tree across the United States in USDA hardiness zones 5-9 in full sun. It needs approximately 450-600 chill hours to have a fruit set meaning it's perfect for the southern USA and loves the hot heat!

Moist, well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter is best to keep this peach tree healthy. An annual application of slow-release fertilizer during the active growing season will benefit the tree for structural growth and increase fruit yield. Water thoroughly during the first year of planting to establish a strong root system and during the fruiting period to avoid blossom drop. 

It's not necessary to prune the Texstar Peach but it may help with fruit-bearing load and shape. Prune in late winter or very early spring to shape the tree. Thin fruit to prevent breakage of the limbs.

FAQs for TexStar Peach Tree

A general rule of thumb would be to keep at least 6 inches in between fruit on your growing peach tree. If peaches are clustered, leaves 2-3 fruit per cluster to avoid branches breaking and missed/dropped fruit.

Most peach varieties are self fertile meaning you only need one tree to pollinate itself and produce fruit. The more trees and peach varieties that you have the more fruit you will get, however.

All peach trees bloom in early spring but this will depend on spring in your area and climate. In Texas, most peaches bloom during March & April.

There are many peach tree varieties that grow well in Texas including the frost hardy Texstar Peach & Tex Royal peach both produced by Texas A & M University to bear fruit well in Texas.
