Strange Peach Problem

From: Peter Dragic City: CHAMPAIGN, IL
Hi, I am wondering if you can help to solve a strange peach problem we have. I transplanted 3 seedlings a few years ago and one made beautiful peaches this year. The other two remained as small green pods. Just recently, they grew larger and ripened. They appear green with a tint of yellow. They are sweet/tart to the taste. I have never seen anything quite like this and Google didn't help at all. Thanks!

Hi Peter: I'm going to encourage you to either take photos or bring several fruits to your local UI Extension Office for assistance with identification. Champaign Co. Extension Office: https://extension.illinois.edu/cfiv/contact Best of luck!
