Prunus persica var. nucipersica ?Fantasia?
Fantasia Nectarine
Fantasia nectarine bears large, freestone fruits with yellow skin heavily flushed red. The smooth flesh has a sweet-tart flavor, becoming sweeter and juicier when allowed to ripen longer on the tree.
Tree size depends on rootstock, pruning, and training. Seasonal ripening dates also vary with the local climate.
Plant in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil and water during establishment and fruit development. Plan the spacing around the rootstock and intended training system.
