Abstract:
Vedoka is a new peach variety for British Columbia and other peach growing areas where bacterial leaf spot is not a problem. It is being introduced jointly by the Horticultural Experiment Station, Vineland Station, Ontario, and the Research Station at Summer land, British Columbia. Vedoka (Vineland 290147) is the product of a cross of J. H. Hale × Vedette, made at Vine land in 1929. It was first selected because of the excellent appearance, large size, good quality and firm flesh of the fruit. It ripens with Valiant, is firmer than that variety, but is slightly clingy in some seasons in Ontario.
