Ranger peach is a great peach for cooler climates. It blooms late and the fruit is a medium-size yellow peach. Ranger peach is great for fresh eating or canning. It is cold-tolerant; it's even frost-resistant up to USDA zone 5! Ripens July. Ranger needs 900 chill hours, so it is not recommended south of the northern part of USDA zone 8.
