'''Peaches''' are 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]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]''.  However, only the largest peaches grow in Mushroom World.  The smallest only appear in [[this world]] Peaches have become an symbol of [[Princess Peach]] as a result of their use as an emblem for her band, the [[Peach Hit 5]] in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''.
 
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.
 
==Mushroom World Peaches==
===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.
 
===Common Use===
While peaches are not commonly eaten in the Mushroom World, their presence has lead to the conception of the term, "peachy."  This word can either be used to describe flavor or show one's positive opinion regarding a situation.  While adventuring with [[Mario]], Princess Toadstool was eaten by [[Belome]].  He commented that she tasted, "peachy" in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Super Mario RPG]]''.  Later, Princess Peach would adopt this as a catchphrase, first using it during her second kart tournament and later while rescuing Mario from [[Bowser]] in ''Super Princess Peach''.
 
===Donkey Kong's Encounter===
[[Donkey Kong]] set out on a quest to dethrone the Peach Kingdom's king, [[Torch Tusk]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]''.  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===
While Peach was rescuing [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and the 112 [[Toad (species)|Castle Toad]]s who had been kidnapped by [[Bowser]] and the [[Koopa Troop]] in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', the princess collected songs and voice samples that were hidden on [[Vibe Island]].  Having done so, she created a band, the Peach Hit 5, and performed these songs with them.  The group decided to use a peach as part of the band's logo.
 
==Alternate Roles==
===''Momotaro''===
[[Image:Momotaro Peach.jpg|thumb||150px|[[Mario|Momotaro]] emerges from a peach.]]
In ''[[Momotaro]]'', 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.
 
===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===
[[Image:Peach Blossom.jpg|thumb|left|Peaches rain from the sky.]]
In this world, Peaches appear during [[Princess Peach|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. However, if she isn't quick enough or her attack misses, her opponents are able to eat the peaches as well.<br clear=all>
