Arctic Queen Nectarine
Description
The Arctic Queen nectarine tree boasts sweet, white flesh with rich flavor and firm texture. The freestone flesh is low in acid yielding a delicious flavor, great for fresh eating, preserving, or baking. You can substitute nectarines in any peach recipe and there’s no need to peel the fruit!
This white nectarine tree ripens later in the season as a heavy producer with regular bearing of fruit. The Arctic Queen has vigorous upright growth and is self-pollinating.
