Its deep burgundy-red foliage holds its color from spring through fall, making it a standout specimen even when it’s not in bloom or fruit. In early spring, the tree erupts in a profusion of bright pink blossoms before the leaves emerge, creating a spectacular floral display. Then, in summer, it produces small but genuinely sweet, flavorful peaches. It’s a true three-season performer that earns its place on any patio, deck, or small garden. Available in a standard grow pot or paired with a premium Mexia designer planter for an instant patio statement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThree Seasons of Spectacular Interest\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright pink blossoms cover the bare branches before leaf-out — one of the most dramatic spring flowering displays of any small tree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSummer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep burgundy-red foliage holds its color through the heat; sweet, flavorful peaches ripen mid-to-late summer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFall:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foliage transitions to rich red-orange tones before leaf drop; ornamental value continues through the season\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Bonfire Stands Out\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStunning burgundy-red foliage\u003c\/strong\u003e — deep, rich leaf color from spring through fall; far more ornamental than standard green-leafed peach trees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDwarf, patio-friendly size\u003c\/strong\u003e — naturally compact at 4–6 ft; no aggressive pruning needed to keep it manageable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReal, edible peaches\u003c\/strong\u003e — produces sweet, flavorful fruit in mid-to-late summer; not just ornamental\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-fertile\u003c\/strong\u003e — produces fruit without a second tree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContainer-friendly\u003c\/strong\u003e — thrives in large containers (15–25 gal); ideal for patios, decks, and balconies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator magnet\u003c\/strong\u003e — early spring blossoms are a critical nectar source for bees emerging from winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHardiness \u0026amp; Growing Zones\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA Hardiness Zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChill hours required:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 650–700 hours below 45°F — important for zones 8–9; check your local chill hour accumulation before purchasing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZones 5–6:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully cold-hardy; protect flower buds from late spring frosts, which can reduce fruit set; plant in a sheltered location or cover during late frost events\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZones 7–8:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ideal conditions; reliable spring blooming and summer fruiting with adequate chill hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZone 9:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grows well in most zone 9 locations with sufficient winter chill; best suited for inland or higher-elevation areas rather than coastal low-chill locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSunlight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun (6–8+ hours required for best foliage color, bloom, and fruit production)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained; peaches are sensitive to root rot in waterlogged conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4–6 ft tall × 4–6 ft wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFruit harvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-to-late summer (July–August in most zones)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Care Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in full sun with well-drained soil. Water consistently during the first growing season; established trees are moderately drought-tolerant. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced or peach-specific fertilizer. Thin fruit clusters to 4–6 inches apart in early summer to improve fruit size and reduce branch stress. Prune in late winter to remove dead wood and maintain shape — peaches fruit on one-year-old wood, so some annual pruning is needed to encourage new fruiting wood each year. In containers, use a quality potting mix and ensure excellent drainage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAvailable Options\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1–2 ft. — Grow Pot (Plastic)\u003c\/strong\u003e — young, well-rooted tree; most economical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2–3 ft. — Grow Pot (Plastic)\u003c\/strong\u003e — larger specimen; faster to first bloom and fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2–3 ft. — Mexia Planter (Green)\u003c\/strong\u003e — 2–3 ft tree in a premium Mexia designer planter; patio-ready\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2–3 ft. — Mexia Planter (Grey)\u003c\/strong\u003e — 2–3 ft tree in a Mexia planter in grey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2–3 ft. — Mexia Planter (Black)\u003c\/strong\u003e — 2–3 ft tree in a Mexia planter in black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Live Good Logistics","offers":[{"title":"1-2 ft. \/ Grow Pot \/ Plastic","offer_id":52045252493592,"sku":"ORN-PEA-BON-12-5G","price":119.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2-3 ft. \/ Grow Pot \/ Plastic","offer_id":52045252526360,"sku":"ORN-PEA-BON-23-5G","price":109.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2-3 ft. \/ Mexia \/ Green","offer_id":52045252559128,"sku":"ORN-PEA-BON-23-5G-ME12SGD","price":289.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2-3 ft. \/ Mexia \/ Grey","offer_id":52045252591896,"sku":"ORN-PEA-BON-23-5G-ME12CGD","price":289.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2-3 ft. \/ Mexia \/ Black","offer_id":52045252624664,"sku":"ORN-PEA-BON-23-5G-ME12BKD","price":289.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1110\/4944\/files\/Bonfire-Patio-Peach-2.jpg?v=1778411372","url":"https:\/\/www.hendersongardensupply.com\/products\/bonfire-patio-peach","provider":"Henderson Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
