In cooking, peach refers to a type of fruit grown on a tree. It has a fuzzy skin, is of a pinky orange color, and has soft, yellowy orange flesh with one big stone in the middle. It is usually a very sweet fruit, and is quite popular in the US, where it is grown widely in the southeastern part of the country.
Peach can also refer to the color, which is a pinkish or orangey yellow.
Peach is also an old-fashioned slang term for a really nice person.
Peach is also a very outdated slang term for telling on someone, such as confessing to the police about someone else's involvement in a crime.

The fruit is a drupe, with a single large seed encased in hard wood (called the "stone" or "pit"), yellow or whitish flesh, a delicate aroma, and a velvety skin that bruises easily. Peaches, along with cherries, plums and apricots, are stone fruits (drupes).
