Peaches in Alberta?

Question

I was wondering if you can grow peaches in Alberta, Canada. I have heard of Elberta peach trees, also heard them being called Alberta peach trees, and want to know if those kind, or any other kinds of peaches can grow in Alberta (near Calgary). If not, can they grow in a greenhouse? Thanks.

Answer 1

I'm going to assume it's not warm enough year round. Because when i think of peaches i think of georgia and it lacks the snow. even though i know you guys have fairly mild weather there sometimes (like this past feb.) you guys still got snow the beginning of May.

Answer 2

I am pretty sure it is too frikin cold out there.    BC Okanagan area for that fruit.  None in Cranbrook that I am aware of because it is too cold there as well.
