 I have two Siberian peach
 trees  that are white fleshed and late/Sept producing. 
 They have been hardy for some years in zone 4.

 sure they cannot handle zone 4 cold.  Should do very well
 in Zone 5, though.  At least one of our members has
 redleaf-peaches. another seed-propagated landrace that is
 also very tough and prolific.  When I was a kid growing up
 in Kansas, I had two trees that were watered with runoff
 from a chicken house.  Very small, flavorful, white-fleshed
 peaches. Mom used to make jam from them. She also pickled
 them to serve with holiday meals, particularly ham and
 muscovy duck.  Delicious! -- Sam Brungardt, St. Paul, MN
