Rose Princess Nectarine Tree (Prunus persica 'Rose Princess') is a juicy freestone fruit tree that features high yields and a long harvest season! Featuring white flesh that's sweet and juicy, surrounded by smooth bright yellow skin that's predominantly blushed bright rosy-red.
Developing on sturdy limbs with a backdrop of lush green foliage, these self-fruitful trees won't need a pollinator partner to produce a large crop of fruit. Your neighbors will be jealous of the burst of ruffled pink spring blossoms and the juicy summer ornaments!
The fuzzless fruits are firm and have a mild flavor. Perfect for fresh eating and snacking. Harvest for a long period each summer, just in time for barbecues and fêtes, you'll enjoy these healthy jewels with very little work!
Planting and Application:
A lovely edible ornamental tree that reaches a modest size, use the Rose Princess in your landscape for shading your seating areas and garden beds. Keep pruned smaller for easy harvest and so any sized garden can accommodate a fruit tree of its own!
These white Nectarine trees are easy to prepare, the freestone pit easily popping out of the flesh. Add to pastries, breakfast cereal and smoothies, or can these into jam and jelly, that's of course if you don't eat all these succulent beauties fresh off the tree!
