Zaiger Pride Peach, 3 on 1 Multi Grafted Fruit Tree

The Zaiger Pride Peach Tree (3-on-1 Multi-Grafted) is a remarkable space-saving fruit tree that brings together three of the beloved Zaiger “Pride” peach varieties on a single Nemaguard rootstock. Specially bred for low-chill, warm winter regions, this tree offers multiple harvests throughout the summer by combining early-, mid-, and late-season peaches in one tree. Each grafted branch produces juicy, sweet, and richly flavored yellow freestone peaches—perfect for fresh eating, baking, canning, or preserving.

In spring, the tree adorns itself with vibrant pink blossoms that add ornamental beauty before giving way to a long succession of flavorful fruit. Thriving in full sun and well-draining soil, this self-fruitful tree delivers both productivity and elegance, making it a rewarding addition to any home orchard or edible garden. The Nemaguard rootstock also makes this 3-in-1 Zaiger Peach resistant to nematode infestations, particularly root-knot nematodes.

Rootstock & Tree Size

Rootstock: Nemaguard — a vigorous, disease-resistant rootstock ideal for warm climates and sandy, well-draining soils.

Tree Size: Standard — typically grows 20–25 feet unpruned, producing a full canopy and abundant fruit yield.

Grafted Varieties

Possible varieties may include: Mid-Pride, August Pride, Eva’s Pride, June Pride, and May Pride.

• Zones: 8–10 depending upon grafts
• Chill hours: 100–300
• Harvest: May through August (varies by graft)
• Looks: Yellow flesh freestone peaches with yellow to red-blushed skin and vibrant golden interiors.
• Personality: Sweet, juicy, and aromatic with the rich flavor the Zaiger “Pride” series is famous for.
• Facts of note: Tolerant of heat and well-suited for mild winter regions. Provides a continuous harvest throughout summer when properly pruned and maintained. Best performance in full sun with well-draining soil.
• Pollination: Self-fruitful; grafted varieties pollinate one another effectively and can also serve as pollinators for nearby peach trees.

Care & Training Tips

Orienting Your Multi-Graft Tree: When planting your multi-graft tree, orient it properly so there is balanced growth of each variety. If you know the relative vigor of each variety, place the strongest growers on the north side (less sun exposure) and weaker growers on the south (more sun exposure). If vigor is unknown, observe limb diameter and place the smallest limb toward the south for best results.

Pruning Your Multi-Graft Tree: Regular pruning of multi-graft trees is necessary to maintain balance between grafted limbs. Without proper pruning, more vigorous limbs can dominate and shade out others.
