A new and distinct variety of peach tree, denominated 'Gulfsnow', has a winter chilling requirement estimated at 400 chill units (cu). The tree is medium size, moderately vigorous, and semi-upright in growth habit. It bears showy, pink flowers, and leaves with globose glands. Trees of 'Gulfsnow' are self-fertile and regularly bear annual crops of early season fruit that are large size (185 g) for its ripening season. Fruit are uniformly firm with non-melting white flesh. Fruit are nearly round, and uniform with substantially symmetrical shape, and have an attractive 50 to 60% red skin. The fruit of 'Gulfsnow' usually ripen 10 days after ‘Gulfcrimson’ peach in early June at Attapulgus, Ga.
