The Belle of Georgia is a popular variety of peach tree known for its large, juicy, and flavorful fruit. However, it is typically a standard-sized tree that can reach heights of 15-25 feet (4.5-7.5 meters) or more.
Dwarf peach trees, on the other hand, are smaller in size and are specifically bred or grafted to have a more compact growth habit. They are ideal for smaller gardens, patios, or containers where space is limited.
