For something out of this world, try the Galaxy Donut Peach! Unique and novelty fruit, often called Flat, Donut, Doughnut or Bagel peaches, these unusually shaped, juicy, firm and delectably sweet! Anything but boring in shape and flavor, it's not typical heart-shaped peach!
The Galaxy Donut Peach Tree (Prunus persica 'Galaxy') is an absolutely gorgeous tree! The weeping branches are ornamental, especially when they're blossoming in white and pink blooms, or weighted down in rosy-blushed fruit!
Covered in vibrant green foliage, Galaxy is a modestly-sized fruit tree that can be kept as small as you need, while still providing you and your family with large, sweet Peaches.
Ripening in mid-late summer, these are ready just in time for summer grilling and barbecues, and a cool treat on hot summer days. Galaxy is about 50% larger than other donut varieties, and the fruit has a marvelous reddish blush, with a hint of yellow. The semi-cling stones are small, so there is more peach for you to eat.
Bearing up to 50 pounds of fruit per tree in the second or third year. This disease-resistant tree grows well in warmer climates and survives cold winters as well. But one of the most spectacular characteristics of this variety is the sweeping foliage, bending toward the ground like a weeping willow, ornamented with beautiful reddish-orange fruit.
Self-pollinating, you'll only need a single tree, but for a much larger yield, you can plant them with other peaches. And who wouldn't want more? Bite into this juicy peach, and while the juice drips down your chin, that white flesh just melts in your mouth!
How to Use Galaxy Donut Peach Tree In The Landscape
A beautiful, ornamental tree like this deserves the spotlight. The graceful weeping form, gorgeous bloom set and those fuzzy novelty gems make for a fantastic specimen tree for your front yard!
Providing great shade for patios and seating areas, these accent trees are just as suitable for home orchards of all sizes.
Use these sweet, firm and juicy peaches in all your favorite recipes! Grill them to bring out the sweetness and caramelize the sugars, slice them fresh, pack them for an easy lunch treat, or blend them into your favorite smoothies and ice cream!
#ProPlantTips For Care
Fruit trees need full sun, at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal results. Hardy in USDA growing zones 5-8, Galaxy Peach is great for cold hardiness zones and warm climates alike.
When you plant your Galaxy Donut Peach Tree, choose a location with loamy, well-drained soil, enriched with compost and organic matter. Mulch well to retain moisture and insulate the roots!
Provide ample water for your young tree while it becomes established, not allowing it to dry out between waterings. Then reduce your watering to moderate, yet consistent moisture during the heat of summer and when fruiting.
Bred to resist diseases that afflict other peach varieties. This variety's fruit matures in August and has been a favorite among peach growers for the past 25 years. Head over to our Garden Blog for planting tips and tricks, Fruit Tree Care and pruning instructions to best keep your Peach tree healthy!

Peach Tree Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take for Galaxy Donut Peach Trees to bear fruit?
Nature Hills Nursery sells fruit trees with mature root systems that are already three to four years old, so you’ll enjoy fruit sooner than you would with younger trees! Expect a young peach tree to begin fruiting by the 3rd year after you plant it.
How Fast Do Galaxy Donut Peach Trees Grow?
Be sure to plant your peach in a sunny and well-drained location. Once your Galaxy Donut (Prunus persica 'Galaxy') has been established (after the first year), it can typically add 12-18 inches of new growth in a growing season. If your plants are adding less than that in a season, it may be worth your while to check the fertility level.
Where do Galaxy Donut Peach Trees Grow Best?
Peach trees grow best in well-drained, fertile soil in at least 6 hours of full sun per day or more.
Do You Need 2 Peach Trees to Produce Fruit?
All peach trees are self-fertile, however planting more than one peach tree that blooms at about the same time, boosts yields on both trees and extends your harvest time!
Harvest Times for Galaxy Donut Peach Trees
Galaxy Donuts are typically ready to harvest in late June to early July. Keep in mind exact harvest times are subject to change depending on the hardiness zones they’re being grown in.
Early-Season? Mid-Season? Late-Season? The terminology can be confusing for new peach tree growers. Weather, climate and your tree determine when it’s ripe.
When Should Galaxy Donut Peach Tree be Planted?
Bareroot peach trees can be planted in spring when they are available in your area. Container-grown peach trees can be very successfully transplanted all throughout the growing season. Check for first and last frost dates for your area with your local County Extension Office.
- Plant bareroot peach trees in the early spring.
- Plant container-grown trees anytime the ground is not frozen by digging a hole as deep as the soil line and twice as wide.
