[[Image:Peach_Blossom_Peach.jpg|thumb|right|[[Princess Peach]] eating a '''Peach'''.]]
A '''Peach''' is an edible, juicy [[fruit]] with restorative properties.  Peaches vary in size greatly.  The smallest are the typical size for a [[Mushroom World]] fruit and the largest are roughly twice the size of [[Hoofer the Wildebeest]].  However, only the largest peaches grow in Mushroom World.  The smallest only appear in the world of ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]''  Peaches have become an symbol of [[Princess Peach]] as a result of their use as an emblem for her band, the [[Peach Hit Five]].
 
Although [[Peachy Peach|Peachy Peaches]] have a similar name and appear nearly identical, Peachy Peaches are actually created through human means, while peaches grow on trees.
 
==Growth==
Peaches grow on trees.  The only two known peach trees are located in the [[Peach Kingdom]], specifically at the farthest reaches of [[Arctic Plunge]] and [[Ancient Foundry]].  These trees are capable of growing peaches of enormous sizes almost instantaneously.  The fruit produced by these trees are the largest known peaches in the Mushroom World.  Smaller ones have only appeared in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' world.
 
==History==
===Donkey Kong's Invasion===
{{main|Donkey Kong Jungle Beat}}
[[Donkey Kong]] set out on a quest to dethrone the Peach Kingdom's king, [[Torch Tusk]].  Along the way, he found both of the peach trees in the kingdom, one in Arctic Plunge and the other in Ancient Foundry.  Before he continued on his way, he ate one gigantic peach from each of them.
 
===Peach Hit Five===
{{main|Super Princess Peach}}
While Peach was rescuing [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and the 112 [[Toad (species)|Castle Toad]]s who had been kidnapped by [[Bowser]] and the [[Koopa Troop]], the princess collected songs and voice samples that were hidden on [[Vibe Island]].  Having done so, she created a band, the Peach Hit Five, and performed these songs with them.  The group decided to use a peach as part of the band's logo.
 
==Other Continuities==
===''Momotaro''===
{{main|Momotaro}}
In another land, an [[Hammer Bro.|elderly couple's]] [[Princess Peach|grand-daughter]] was kidnapped by an evil [[Bowser|ogre]].  However, a large peach fell from the sky and split open upon the ground, revealing [[Mario|Momotaro]].  When he discovered what had happened, he set out to save the grand-daughter.  He wore a headband emblazoned with a peach symbol.
 
===Peach Blossom===
{{main|Peach Blossom}}
In the world of ''Super Smash Bros'', Peaches appear during [[Princess Peach]]'s [[Final Smash]], the [[Peach Blossom]].  The move puts all of Peach's enemies to sleep while normal-sized Peaches fall from the sky.  Because of the state of her opponents, Peach is free to consume all of the Peaches and restore her health.
 
==Appearances==

;''[[Momotaro]]'' (1988) : One night after an elderly couple's granddaughter was kidnapped by a terrible ogre, a gigantic peach fell from the sky.  When it landed and split open, a boy named Momotaro (played by [[Mario]]) emerged.  The grandparents kindly took him in, but when Momotaro heard about their granddaughter, he set out to rescue her.  Wearing a headband emblazoned with a peach emblem over his [[Mario's Hat|hat]], the peach became his symbol.

;''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'' (2004-'05) : Each of the kingdoms in this game were named after a specific fruit.  The [[Peach Kingdom]] was named after peaches and symbolized by the fruit in the game's level select menu.  [[Donkey Kong]] could only clear the [[Arctic Plunge]] and [[Ancient Foundry]] levels if he reached peach tree at the end of each level and consumed the gigantic peach on each one.

;''[[Super Princess Peach]]'' (2005-'06) : As [[Princess Peach]] progressed though the adventure, she found and bought hidden music tracks and voice samples that comprised the game's soundtrack.  The [[Peach Hit Five]] could then perform these tracks using a peach as their logo.  An on-stage screen showed a peach splitting open to reveal the band's logo.

;''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' (Scheduled 2008) : Peaches served as a recovery item in this title, similar to the [[food]] item.  Each peach restores 5% damage.  Peaches only appeared when [[Princess Peach|Peach]] used her [[Final Smash]], [[Peach Blossom]], during which the fruit rains from the sky and can be consumed by any fighter.  Peaches were presented as two-dimensional photographs rather than three-dimensional models.
