Melchoir (talk) 02:19, 21 November 2011 (UTC) The peacherine is a product of cross pollination between a peach and nectarine. The resulting fruits are large with highly colored smooth skin. The peacherine is a medium-large sized fruit and has sweet, juicy, and fine textured yellow flesh with clingstone. The name derives from the Latin malum persicum, which means “Persian apple”, which became the French peche, then peach. Peacherines are self-fertile so it does not require a cross pollinator. In order to minimize the stress on the tree, the logic of a hard first year prune is to achieve a balance between branches and roots. First fruit produces when then tree is 2 years old. Peacherine tree thrives in warm sheltered and full sun position. Peacherine tree grows best in limey, loamy soil conditions and adequate drainage. It also respond to a high nitrogen (NPK) fertilizer during spring. Annual thinning is important to the health of the tree. A peacherine tree grows approximately four meters wide and three meters in hight. A peacherine consists of a peach and nectarine. Peacherines are good when eaten fresh, preserved and used in tarts, baking or pies. If leaf clover appears in the leaves, then it has a disease that overwinters in the crevices of the tree bark and around the buds. A peach tree is a deciduous tree belonging to the subfamily Prunoideae of the family Rosaceae. The peach is a species of Prunas native to China. The peach is a fruit with a yellow-whitish flesh that has a delicate aroma. A nectarine is often referred to as a fuzzy-less peach due to its lack of skin fuzz. A nectarine is smaller and sweeter than a peach. A nectarine is said to be a crossbreed of peaches and plums. Three types of peacherines: Peacherine Matakohe, Peacherine Red Bluffs, and Peacherine Haleys.

Peacherine Matakohe

The tree came from an old orchard in the Matakohe area. The flesh of the fruit is sweet melting yellow. Ripening is in the late of February and March.

Peacherine Red Bluff

This is another variety of peacherine. The flesh of fruit is sweet juicy and delicious. The skin of the fruit is greeny pale yellow furry. Ripening is in the month of March.

Peacherine Healeys

"The fruit has a smooth skinned golden variety with a red flush and yellow juicy flesh. Flesh is deep yellow. Ripening is in January."

The development of Peacherine

"In early 1900s, Jon Phillipi, a horticulturist from a farming town in Central California named Lodi, spent three years experimenting and successfully crossed a new breed of fruit called peacherine. The new fruit is grown by cross-pollinating between peach and nectarine fruits. The result is a firm, sweet white meat, with a mixture of the flavors of both peach and nectarine. Due to its firmness, the peacherine is very suitable for transporting long distances for sale without damage."

COPYRIGHT VIOLATION on Peacherine tree
Gabby, while working on the AfD for Peacherine tree, I just noticed you added a lot of text copied illegally from http://www.hollybrookorchards.com/fruit_varieties/peaches_nectarines/index.html in violation of that website's copyright. Please be aware that Wikipedia takes copyright extremely seriously. You are welcome to read and adapt text from any website into your own words, or to quote short passages (as fair usage) but you MUST add a citation naming the website, and if you made direct quotations you MUST also show clearly with quotation marks and citations that these are someone else's words and copyright.

Editing Peacherine
Hallo, could you please only add statements with references (i.e. you use text like in whatever you add. I have just put back (reverted) your latest additions as they were unreferenced, and in fact the additions accidentally broke a reference that had been added earlier. There is no advantage in adding unsourced text as it will only get either itself or the whole article deleted - and the article is already at Articles for Deletion, so the threat is immediate. Please feel free to talk to me if I can help in any way. Thankyou. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:05, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
