Planting & Care

A heritage variety from the Netherlands, cultivated for almost 100 years.
A stunning centerpiece tree with elegant leaves and charming pink spring blossoms.
Produces heavy crops of vibrant red, juicy nectarines in August.
The fruit is exceptionally sweet and refreshingly delicious.
Excellent frost tolerance makes it a reliable choice for colder UK regions.
Self-pollinating, so you are guaranteed a crop without a second tree.
Perfect for eating fresh from the tree, grilling, or adding to salads.

Species: Peach
Flowering Time: March, April
Harvest Time: August
Position: Full sun
Eventual Spread: 1m
Hardiness: Hardy. May require some protection from very late frosts as this can damage the flowers, which will reduce the fruit yield for that year.
Pest & Disease Resistance: Good resistance to main pests and diseases, including Peach Leaf Curl. Aphids and caterpillars can be washed away with soapy water.
Soil Type: Prefers well-drained, loamy soils. Will struggle in poorly draining soil.
Pruning: Requires some structural pruning in winter to maintain a productive shape and improve yields.
Tasting Notes: Fresh, juicy and one of the sweetest nectarines you'll taste.
Pollination: Self-fertile, it does not require a pollination partner to produce fruit.
Uses: Eating, Making Jams, Grilling, Salads

Planting Time: Can be planted at any time of year.
Position: Plant in a sunny, sheltered position. Can also be grown in large pots.
Soil: Prefers well-drained, loamy soil. Avoid soil that becomes waterlogged.
Pruning: Prune each winter to ensure the tree maintains a productive shape. This improves airflow, prevents disease, and can increase fruit yield.
Pest & Disease Care: Shows good resistance to Peach Leaf Curl. If you see aphids or caterpillars, they can be washed off with soapy water. Pruning to improve airflow and removing rotting organic matter from nearby will reduce the risk of bacterial canker.
Frost Protection: The tree is hardy, but the flowers are vulnerable to very late frosts. If a late frost is forecast during flowering, protect the blossoms with horticultural fleece to ensure a good crop.
