Hi I believe that peach often develops a bruise very easily, just from a little touch.. It's the same meaning for a person. If they get a littlebump on the arm, they often develop a bruise.

sensitive to touch, or bruising easily, as Clive says

a peach discolors when it is handled roughly. because peach flesh is soft, it is easily bruised. to bruise like a peach is to quickly and pointedly bruise
