Abstract

Fifty-one peach and nectarine cultivars and selections growing in a grower cooperator test plot in the piedmont section of South Carolina were rated for amount of crop following —5°C on March 27, 1982, and —3.3°C on April 20 and 23, 1983. In both years, cultivar ratings ranged from no crop to those that needed heavy thinning. Generally, cultivars developed in climates similar to South Carolina’s performed best.
