Summary Comments
This rootstock comes from Spain and is very new to the United States. After 3 years in the 2009 NC-140 trial, it is semidwarfing and appears to be compatible with Redhaven peach. In the 4th year (2012), fruit size was very small. It is reported to be resistant to rootknot nematodes and tolerant of calcareous soils and water logged conditions. |
