Notes
'Saturn' donut peach (Prunus persica 'Saturn') is a fruit tree for borders, accents, and food gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. Fragrant flowers open in spring, and bees, butterflies, and birds visit the tree. It grows fast and has an open habit, so give it plenty of space.
Pairs well with Chives, Nasturtium, and Calendula.
