(Dwarf) Prunus Persica 'Goldmine' (Nectarine Goldmine)
(Dwarf) Prunus Persica 'Goldmine' (Nectarine Goldmine) is a compact deciduous fruit tree, prized for its sweet, juicy nectarines with smooth, creamy-white flesh and a bright red blush on the skin. Known for its exceptional flavour and versatility, this variety is perfect for fresh eating, desserts, and preserving.
The tree is ideal for smaller gardens, pots, or urban spaces due to its dwarf size. In early spring, it produces beautiful pink blossoms, adding a touch of ornamental beauty before the fruit develops. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, Nectarine Goldmine is a self-fertile variety, requiring no cross-pollination. The fruit ripens in late summer, providing a generous harvest of delicious nectarines.
