Produces a mass of lovely pink flowers from the end of March so it is advised to protect this species from frost. Undercover in a greenhouse works well. We supply nectarine trees in a range of sizes and forms, so you can grow your tree in a pot, against a wall as a fan trained tree or as a bush. We have the right size for even the smallest gardens!
Pruning in the spring will encourage strong new growth which will help fruiting. Prefer a warm, sunny and sheltered position. All varieties are self fertile.
