I inherited a number of peach trees with my N. GA property which had been abandoned for several years. While I have no idea what variety they are, they are all white fleshed with small fruit. Probably seed grown. I have since planted a Hale\'s Haven which is delicious. Peaches have been the easiest fruits to grow as mine are not grafted. Belle of Georgia comes both as rooted cuttings from seed or grafted. I prefer seed trees or cuttings over grafted fruit because deer are problematic in my area. They girdle the trees. They have destroyed grafted apples and pears down to the root stock but seed/cuttings grown peaches always come back and start producing a few years later.
