Roadside fruit finds

This sort of counts as “roadside”… a local sidewalk planter that has what I thought was a seedling peach (but maybe is a nectarine?). I suspect it’s a volunteer/seedling because when I first spotted it last year, I noticed it was growing from the very corner of a planter filled with ornamental stuff. I saw today that it has some fruit on it, and they look shiny rather than fuzzy:

Most of the other sidewalk planters on this block just have ornamental stuff, and this one is near the middle of the block that gets closed every Sunday to be a farmers market. My theory is someone ate the fruit at the market and threw the pit in a planter. I’m wondering if the person who tends the planters has noticed it and sprayed it, because it’s shockingly free of PLC:
