   I have followed the tread of the Siberian Peach (China Pearl) some what closely,   I am very interested in this fruit and would very much like some one to send me a link (off list please) 3 year ago I found a peach very similar to this one described in some of our seedling planting and the description that I have tried to give to people that have tried this fruit and the ones that have not is as well is that it looks like a peach that has flesh that is the color of a pear with the texture of a prune / plum and the sweetness of the best and most tastiest peach ever eaten, while very firm and crunchy it remains very sweet and is a great keeper if stored in the fridge.

I would like to offer scion wood (this spring of course) to any one that would want it.  We will be moving our peach planting ( that means cutting them down and planting other trees in their place.)   We are no longer growing or propagating peaches for the trade.  Why because I do not want this peach to be lost in the changes of time.   All I ask is that the ones that want scion wood pay postage shipped UPS.   We have named the peach (white one) and is very easy to propagate. White one also has be grown organic here for many years with very little or no problems with diseases.
