The objective of this work was to evaluate the performance of peach and nectarine genotypes in the conditions of western Santa Catarina State. Five peach genotypes (‘BRS Rubimel’, ‘Zilli’, ‘SCS423 Bonora’, ‘Seleção Epagri 02-40’ and BRS Fascínio) and the nectarines  'Seleção Epagri 31-43', ‘SCS418 Julema’ and ‘Seleção Embrapa Necta 528’ were evaluated in the municipalities of Caibi, Cordilheira Alta (except ‘BRS Fascínio') and Descanso, until the fourth year. The earliest harvest was of ‘Seleção Epagri  31-43’, ‘SCS418 Julema’ and ‘SCS423 Bonora’, starting in the second 10-day period of September, despite the slightly later flowering compared to 'Zilli' and ‘BRS Rubimel’. In terms of productivity, the outstanding genotypes were ‘SCS423 Bonora’, ‘Zilli’, ‘SCS418 Julema’ and ‘Seleção Epagri 02-40’ in Cordillera Alta, ‘SCS423 Bonora’ in Caibi and ‘SCS423 Bonora’, ‘Zilli’ and ‘SCS418 Julema’ in Descanso. The average fruit mass was higher in treatments ‘Seleção Epagri 02-40’ and ‘Zilli’ in Cordillera Alta, ‘BRS Fascínio’, ‘Seleção Epagri 02-40’ and ‘Zilli’ in Caibi and ‘BRS Fascínio’ and ‘Seleção Epagri 02-40’ in Descanso. ‘SCS423 Bonora’ peach and 'SCS418 Julema' nectarine, inside their group, combine desirable characteristics of precocity, fruit size and productivity.
