Canning Clingstone Peaches
Andross
A very good quality canning peach, Andross is harvested the first week of August and offers excellent size and color. The semi-upright Andross peach tree is highly productive and medium-sized.
Bowen
Introduced in 1971 to fill the early August harvest window, the Bowen peach matures on August 3. Bowen fruit is medium to large, soft, and sometimes shows green pockets in the fruit. Bowen is a productive tree.
Carson
With a maturity date of July 22, the Carson peach is prized for its very early harvest time, very good fruit size and very good canning quality. The semi-upright Carson tree is somewhat willowy.
Davis (Dr. Davis)
The Dr. Davis peach was introduced by the University of California in 1982. This selection matures on August 16 with excellent firmness and cold storage capability. Dr. Davis is a productive, upright tree that produces fruit of good size and color.
Goodwin
Introduced by the University of California, the Goodwin peach offers uniform yellow-gold flesh color without red staining. This canning variety matures on July 28 with fruit that is angular-to-round in shape with a slight tip. Since this variety is susceptible to split pits, it is quickly losing grower popularity to the Klamath peach. The Goodwin tree is vigorous and upright with a spreading growth habit. (U.S. Plant Patent # 13911)
Halford
An industry standard since its introduction in 1921, Halford is a late canning peach with a maturity date of August 22. The vigorous, semi-upright Halford tree produces large, firm fruit of consistently good quality.
Hesse
The Hesse peach ripens uniformly for minimum pickings. Hesse matures on August 28 with high quality, firm fruit. This very productive variety offers fruit of good flavor, with no tendency to split pits. (U.S. Plant Patent #8332)
Klamath
Klamath is a new cling peach from Zaiger’s Genetics. Growers appreciate the Klamath variety for its early harvest time. The Klamath peach ripens with Andross in the first week of August and produces high yields. Klamath is quickly becoming an industry favorite because it is firm, sizes easily and hangs well on the tree. The tree is medium size and very productive. (U.S. Plant Patent # 15557)
Late Ross
The Late Ross peach was discovered as a mutation of the Ross variety that matures on August 18th. This selection bears uniform fruit of good shape, color, size and firmness. The Late Ross peach tree is vigorous and very productive with an upright spreading growth habit. (U.S. Plant Patent #11208)
Lilleland
The large, nearly symmetrical fruit of the Lilleland variety is harvested with Halford on August 22. The Lilleland peach exhibits excellent canning qualities with no pit staining noted. This tree is productive and upright to spreading with good vigor. (U.S. Plant Patent # 13028)
Loadel
The Loadel peach features an extra early harvest date of July 17 along with good color and firmness. Loadel sizes well for an extra early peach. This tree is large, vigorous, and semi-spreading.
Monaco
A heavy producer, the Monaco canning peach matures on August 19 with good size, color and firmness. The Monaco tree is large, with an upright spreading growth habit.
Rizzi
Maturing just before Dr. Davis, the Rizzi peach offers excellent storage qualities that are attractive to canneries for extending processing season. The very productive Rizzi variety offers high quality fruit of good flavor, medium size and firm texture. (U.S. Plant Patent # 8394)
Ross
An industry standard since 1982, the Ross peach ripens on August 9. The Ross variety features large, uniform and moderately firm fruit. This medium sized tree is highly productive with a semi-upright growth habit.
Stanislaus
The Stanislaus peach is an extra early cling developed by Zaiger’s Genetics and available only to members of the California Canning Peach Association. Stanislaus matures on July 22 - with or slightly ahead of Carson - but with better fruit quality. This tree is very vigorous and productive, maximizing returns for both cannery and grower. (U.S. Plant Patent #8376)
