Abstract
Stand persistence of eight alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) cultivars in the Interior of British Columbia was correlated to fall growth. A similar relationship has been reported for alfalfa winter survival and fall growth in other parts of North America. One alfalfa cultivar, Anik, did not fit this relationship, since it had little fall growth and low stand persistence. Although the relationship between fall growth and stand persistence appears useful for predicting cultivar stand persistence, major exceptions can occur.Key words: Winter injury, Medicago sativa, low temperature growth
