Then the difference wasn't as dramatic as my yellow whatevers- and the
white donut peach. I like both-- but I think the yellows are
more versatile.

I've got until February or so to look into it-- and from what I've
seen so far, the NY nurseries only have white, so maybe the yellows
aren't hardy up here.
