History and origin of Paraguayans

Chinese horticulturists treated peaches with such reverence that could only be planted in the royal precincts of the emperor. They ranked peaches between gold (the yellow-fleshed) and silver (white flesh). Silver belongs to the group originally known as "Pan Tao" we now call Saturn peach.

This fruit originated in China at least 200 years ago as a natural mutation of the common peach, as happened with the nectarine. What it should have been a peach grew from a spontaneous mutation to become this delicious fruit know as flat or Saturn peach.

The tree was so delicate that it could not be planted outside their habitat but after several investigations failures and successes they managed to extract a strain resistant to frost in New Jersey (U.S.A.) to be developed in improving tree and fruit buds.

Saturn peaches have some requirements similar to the regular peaches and nectarines growing and so is grown in temperate climates. It's no wonder that with these requirements for cultivation Spain is one of the largest producers of Saturn peaches highlighting Murcia as the region that produces more fruits of this variety in Spain.

It was introduced in the United States in 1869 from China.

In the 1990s this fruit grew in importance and popularity and began to be cultivated in many countries.
