The Crimson Baby Nectarine (Prunus Persica), available as a dwarf variety, offers gardeners the opportunity to enjoy full-sized, sweet, and crisp nectarines even in smaller spaces. This popular variety produces attractive, smooth-skinned yellow fruit, almost completely covered by a red blush, dusted with light-coloured speckles. The flesh is yellow and clingstone, making it perfect for fresh eating.
As a self-pollinating tree, the Crimson Baby Nectarine requires no other variety nearby to produce fruit. It matures early in the season, with harvest occurring in late November. This low-chill variety is well-suited for milder climates, making it an excellent choice for a variety of gardens.
