OK, someone said the best peach they ever ate was actually a nectarine.  I just ate one off my Summer Beaut tree and it is so much better than the bland peaches I'm harvesting so far this year.  Somehow the nect. got the brix up inspite of relentless rain.
 
Wish I could say the same for my Earli-red-fre, or my Redhaven, both of which provided or are providing me with the lovliest water-balloons you ever saw.  My earliest peach, Harrow Diamond did ok.
 
Early returns on Johnboy (an early sport of Loring) and Earnies Choice indicate they may at least be sweet enough to be enjoyable.  On a "normal" year they'd be wonderful.
