About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
The ‚Fantasia’ variety is one of the most well-known yellow‑fleshed nectarines and a reliable bearer for your garden. The large, bright red‑overlaid fruits ripen from mid to late August and separate well from the pit. Like all nectarines, the variety is self‑fertile, so you don't need a second tree. It is not very resistant to powdery mildew, but an airy, sunny location helps you.
Firm, juicy yellow flesh, sweet with refreshing acidity, and a smooth, glossy skin without fuzz.
