What are the two types of peach trees?

The two main types of peach trees are freestone and clingstone. Freestone peaches have flesh that easily separates from the pit, making them ideal for eating fresh and baking. Clingstone peaches, on the other hand, have flesh that clings to the pit, which can make them more challenging to eat but is often preferred for canning and preserving. Both types come in various cultivars that differ in flavor, color, and size.
