Hi... I recently moved to GA and am renting a older house with an "established" lawn. It has several different types of trees on the property, several fig trees, a "crab apple"??? tree, plum tree, several pecan trees and this one we can not figure out. The leaves look like a peach tree.. but the fruit is hard and green (not at all like a peach) the pit looks like a peach pit but the flesh is hard, tart and green. Any ideas???
Thanks! |

It could very well be a plum tree, we had about 5 of those at our first home! Give then time and they could change in Autumn to the most delicious plums ever! YUM
What an amazing life! |

in Ga both peaches and nectarines should already be well into a ripe stage. Do you have a picture?

Could it possibly be a nectarine tree? Their leaves look like those of a peach tree, and there are some varieties that don't ripen until August or later.

debi, perhaps it is a peach tree that isnt ripe yet? i remember ga peaches as being little round hard balls, but then i never got to see one there that was tree ripened. try asking your extention agent. they are a great help with things like that! peace connie in alaska |
