Anything around 100 chill hours?

These don't come true to seed. They are all pollinating each other and all the trees are on special rootstocks.Anyway, sale is done. I trimmed the trees yesterday and am looking forward to some fruit soon.
I think most of my peach and nectarines are on citation. Which seems to work fine here.

Citation works good in many places in CA and in some places around Phoenix (yards that have flood irrigation in particular) but every tree on Citation in my yard has died. Neemagaurd has not fared much better. But trees on Myro and Marianna do great in my yard.

If so I think myrobalan is grown from seed which be very exciting for me. Is Myro compatable with Peachs? or just plums?

Buy my best peach trees and peach interspecifics (like Bella Gold Peacotum) are on Lovell Peach rootstock. That is anoth combo that does well in my yard.Brad, sorry for hijacking your post.
