Note: The numbers next to each cultivar name indicate the source of the information (listed below). If standard deviations or locations are not listed, they were not given in the source work. Cultivars are listed twice if there are two values available in the literature.
* Values modeled from bloom date assuming sequential fulfillment of endo- and eco-dormancy.
† Values from unpublished experimental work summarized in Temperate Fruit Crop Production in Warm Climates . No standard deviations or locations were given associated with these figures.
‡ All values are for floral buds, except walnut values which are for male buds.
