Nectarines
- Price:
- $24.00 - $34.00
Nectarines are peaches with smooth, fuzzless skin, even though they are regarded commercially as different fruits. They were once erroneously believed to be a hybrid of peaches and plums. As with peaches, nectarines can be white or yellow, and clingstone or freestone. On average, nectarines are slightly smaller and sweeter than peaches, but with much overlap in fruit qualities. The lack of skin fuzz can make nectarine skins appear more reddish than those of peaches, contributing to the fruit’s plum-like appearance. The history of the nectarine is unclear; the first recorded mention in English is from 1616, but they had probably been grown much earlier within the native range of the peach in central and eastern Asia. Available varieties: Ruby Diamond, Ruby Grand, Fantasia, Flavortop, Summer Flare, Summer Fire, August Fire.
