Yingqing Peaches

　　The Liwo Yuguanshan Premium Fruit Industry Demonstration Base in Qingzhen City has successfully cultivated an excellent variety introduced from Zhejiang — Yingqing Peaches. After nearly five years of careful cultivation and scientific management, the project has achieved success, and a bountiful harvest is expected this year. The fruits are nearing maturity (late August to early September).

　　　　Yingqing Peaches, also known as National Day Peaches. They originated in Jiukeng Village, Lishui, Zhejiang. The former Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, Fei Xiaotong, inscribed their name as “Jiukeng Peaches.” They come from a bud mutation of a peach tree in a orchard in Jiukeng Village. Due to their ripening period being close to National Day, they were named Yingqing Peaches. Through careful selection and scientific cultivation by the people of Jiukeng, they have developed into a high-quality peach variety renowned across Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai. Locals praise them with the saying, “When it comes to peaches, only eat Yingqing Peaches.”

　　　　Yingqing Peaches are characterized by their large size (the largest single fruit can weigh up to 400 grams), attractive color, crisp flesh, juicy and sweet taste, and a lingering fragrance after eating. They have a high sugar content (up to 18 degrees Brix). Rich in vitamins and trace elements such as iron and zinc, they are both delicious and nutritious green food products, highly favored by consumers.
