Frost Peach
Prunus persica 'Frost'
Frost is a lucky chance seedling discovered at the WSU Mount Vernon testing station, where it performed well in 10-year trials for disease resistance, especially to peach leaf curl. It has proved to be a remarkably durable tree, sailing through disease attacks and continuing to set fruit and ripen crops even in less-than perfect conditions and locations. A tasty, yellow-fleshed peach, it is semi-freestone making it good for fresh eating and kitchen-made treats. Frost also excels as an ornamental tree due to its full, almost double-blossomed, rosy flowers! Ripens mid-season.
Cold Hardy to USDA Zone: 5
Mature Height: Â 14'Â
Sun: Full Sun
Ripening Time: Mid-Season
Pollination: Self Fertile
Dwarf Rootstock: St. Julian A
Semi-Dwarf Rootstock: Krymsk-1
