The Flavour Top Nectarine is renowned for its large, juicy fruit with a sweet and tangy flavour, making it a favourite for fresh eating. The yellow-fleshed fruit is covered in an attractive red-orange skin, making it a visually appealing addition to any garden. This vigorous tree produces abundant, showy blossoms in spring, and with proper thinning, the fruit yield can be maximized for larger, top-quality nectarines.
This self-pollinating variety, originating from Fresno, California in 1969, ripens in August, providing a late summer harvest of sweet, firm, and juicy nectarines. Ideal for a variety of growing conditions, this tree thrives in full sun and well-drained loamy soil.
