Over a two year period, 24 peach clones were evaluated for canning suitability. Five clones produced acceptable products. Of these, 4 were yellow-fleshed and 1 was white-fleshed. Only 1 yellow-fleshed peach was a genetic clingstone with non-melting flesh. All others were freestone types. The canned peaches were compared to 2 commercial clingstone packs. The 4 yellow-fleshed clones produced canned products similar to the commercial packs. The white peach yielded a bright, firm canned product.
