Rich, sweet nectarines, right from home. With the Goldmine Nectarine Tree, you’ll have juicy, firm fruit that gives you an excellent flavor, all without leaving the comfort of home.
Pink-red blooms transition into small, sumptuous fruits, which thrive through neglect and tough conditions. In fact, the Goldmine loves full sun areas, doesn’t require as many chill hours as similar cultivars, and has lower watering needs once established. You won’t have to spend a ton of time in the garden to maintain this tree.
The best part? We’ve nurtured and grown your Goldmine Nectarine in our greenhouse, months before shipping. That means it arrives ready to take hold and take off in your landscape.
You won’t have to deal with finicky care or fuss to get delicious nectarines in the first few seasons.
The only work for you? Picking the perfect spot for your new tree! Get your Goldmine Nectarine, and harvest your own fruit sooner than ever before.
Hardiness zone | 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 |
Harvest time | July - August |
Plant your nectarine tree in well-drained soil in a location where it will receive full sun (at least 6-8 hours of sunlight a day). Heavy winds and early frosts can damage the blossoms, so be sure to protect your tree by planting on the sunniest side of a building or your home.
From there, dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Amend the soil around the hole with compost to ensure the tree has proper drainage.
Keep the soil around the tree moist but not saturated. Watering once a week by leaving a hose at the base of the tree for a few minutes is generally sufficient.
After your tree has been in the ground for six weeks and the danger of frost has passed, apply a well-balanced fertilizer formula, such as 12-12-1
Prune the first two years in order to maintain an open center shape and encourage fruit production. Prune your tree in late winter or early spring using pruning shears and making your cuts at a 45-degree angle.
