Yes!  Details!  Those of us in cold zones are always looking for hardy fruit.  I'm in Zone 4b or 5a, depending on the year, and I'm taking a chance with Saturn peach.  Don't know if it will make it, but I'm trying out a theory that a microclimate will provide enough protection.  I'm planting the peach, upslope between a big compost bin and a Colorado Blue Spruce to its north.  I'd love a peach I didn't have to worry about.  I suspect, Jim, you will sell those little trees fast, just off this listserv.
