Description: YOU ARE BUYING 10 FRESH IOWA INDIAN WHITE SEEDSPrunus persica Iowa Indian white peaches are a localized landrace of white peaches that according to the narrative entered the missions of California in the late 1500s, and over the centuries they slowly migrated east with the movement of various tribes. Genetic testing of these peaches suggests they are not related to the standard peaches you find being grown in the US. There are numerous historical accounts.Here's what William Penn actually wrote in his letter dated 16 August1683 (as posted originally by J. Gibson),"Here are also Peaches, and very good, and in great quantities, not an Indian Plantation without them ... one may have them by Bushels for little; they make a pleasant Drink and I think not inferior to any Peach you have in England, except the true Newington." of semi wild peach orchards that were planted and tended.I originally got my Iowa Indian white seed from Seed Saver member Glen Drowns in the early 90s. These peaches are good for fresh eating, jam, jelly, juice and wine. GERMINATINGKeep seeds stratified in the fridge until spring. Generally seed will often germinate in the fridge in March. Pot up and keep seed warm, 70-80F.
