Hi Everyone,

Iam looking for suggestions for Frost resistant varieties of peach. I haven't had much luck growing peaches in the NW. Everytime I get the dreaded curl leaf.

We tried the Frosty variety but it died.

Thanks
Dave

The leaf curl might be from a fugues aka blight and not from frost. Take a curled leaf to a nursery to be identified. If it is from a fungus there are dormant sprays that can be used before the tree leafs out.
Dormant spray still isn't perfect I sprayed as directed and still have a touch of leaf curl on one of my 3 trees. I've pruned off and burned the infected branch tip. The fight continues!
