'Golden Prolific' Mini-Dwarf Nectarine Trees

The Golden Prolific mini-dwarf nectarine tree is a true genetic dwarf, bearing full-size fruit on trees that only grows 4-6' tall. This variety produces smooth-skinned nectarines with a red blush and juicy yellow flesh, which is freestone, meaning it doesn't stick to the pit, making it easy to eat and process.

Golden Prolific mini-dwarf nectarine trees are prized for their sweet, juicy flavourful, fruit and compact size, making them a great choice for small gardens or even container planting.

Golden Prolific mini-dwarf nectarine trees are self-pollinating, so they don't require a second tree to produce fruit, and they bloom in spring with beautiful pink blossoms. The nectarines ripen in mid to late summer, offering a delicious harvest. Known for being cold hardy and low-maintenance, this tree is both ornamental and productive.

Protecting peaches, nectarines and apricots from rain in spring is crucial to prevent peach leaf curl, a fungal disease that thrives in wet and cool conditions. We recommend planting these trees in a location where they will get lots of sun and heat, but be protected from rain. An example would be up against the south wall of a home, under the overhang of the roof.
