Red Gold Nectarine Tree (Potted)
Red & gold, freestone fruit.
The potted Red Gold Nectarine tree is a semi-dwarf variety that produces large, juicy, and sweet fruit with yellow flesh and a red blush. The fruit is ready to be harvested in mid to late summer, typically around July or August, and has a distinct taste that is both sweet and tangy. The Red Gold Nectarine tree is known for its delicious fruit and is a great addition to any backyard orchard.
The Red Gold Nectarine tree is self-fertile, meaning that it can produce fruit without the need for another tree to pollinate it. However, planting another nectarine tree nearby can help increase the yield of both trees. Recommended pollinators for the Red Gold Nectarine tree include other nectarine varieties such as the Fantasia or the Panamint.
Nectarines have been cultivated for thousands of years and are believed to have originated in China. The Red Gold Nectarine tree, in particular, was developed in the late 1800s in California by horticulturist Luther Burbank. Burbank was known for his work in creating new plant varieties through selective breeding, and the Red Gold Nectarine tree is just one of his many successful creations.
Fun fact: The Red Gold Nectarine tree is named after its fruit, which has a beautiful reddish-gold color when fully ripe. This color is due to the high levels of carotenoids, which are natural pigments that give fruits and vegetables their bright colors.
The Red Gold Nectarine tree is also known for its beautiful pink flowers that bloom in the spring, making it a great addition to any garden.

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
