I have both Contender and Reliance peach here in zone 4/5 Colorado. I have
had them in for 3-4 years and have survived our winters OK, but, as always,
fruiting depends on spring frosts. I don't know what rootstock they are on.
I budded Reliance on p. americana which hasn't done well at all. It makes a
great growth of 3-4' each year, but except for a few buds, dies back
completely each winter.
