Bounty Peach Tree

‘Bounty’ is a productive peach cultivar developed in the USDA peach-breeding program at Kearneysville, West Virginia. Its vigorous trees bear very large, high-quality freestone peaches, making it useful for both home orchards and commercial plantings. ## Fruit and landscape use The [Adams County Nursery cultivar page](https://acnursery.com/product/bounty/) identifies Bounty as an important commercial cultivar in the Mid-Atlantic and describes its large freestone fruit and productive, vigorous trees. [Bob Wells Nursery](https://bobwellsnursery.com/product/bounty-peach-tree/) lists it for USDA zones 5–8 and describes it as self-fruitful, with a mid-season crop. Allow enough room for a spreading fruit-tree canopy and select a site with full sun. ## Seasonal interest Like other peaches, the tree offers seasonal orchard structure and an edible summer harvest. Rootstock and growing conditions can affect the size and vigor of nursery-grown trees, so check the supplied plant’s rootstock and local recommendations when planning spacing. ## Maintenance Water deeply while the tree establishes and during prolonged dry weather. Maintain a weed-free root zone, monitor fruit load, and prune according to local peach-growing guidance to support light and airflow through the canopy.
