Default Re: Paraguayo´s

Yes we've bought them in previous years. They are actually a recent mutation from a peach tree and are known in English as a flat peach. So they are a new type of peach, with the latin name:

Prunus Persica var. platycarpa (foto)

In Spanish as Paraguaya or Paraguayo

And oh they do taste lovely.
