It was my very first plant I order online so I wasn’t sure what to expect but when it got here and in one piece and as long as it is I was shocked but very HAPPY.

Semi Dwarf Arctic Glo White Nectarine Tree on Citation (Prunus persica var. nucipersica ‘Arctic Glo’) is a unique, highly flavorful white-fleshed nectarine known for its vibrant red-blushed skin and juicy, tangy-sweet taste. Unlike many white nectarines, Arctic Glo has a refreshing acidity that balances its sweetness, making it prized for fresh eating, fruit salads, and desserts. Its firm, aromatic flesh adds excellent character, and the fruit is also well-suited for canning or preserves. Grafted onto Citation rootstock, this tree offers controlled vigor, adaptability to various soils, and dependable crops—an outstanding choice for backyard orchards and edible gardens.
Light: Requires full sun for optimal flowering, sweetness, and vibrant fruit color.
Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil; amend with compost or organic matter for improved growth and production.
Water: Water deeply and consistently during the growing season, reducing slightly after harvest. Avoid shallow or irregular watering to prevent fruit drop or splitting.
Fertilizer: Apply a balanced fruit tree fertilizer in early spring and midsummer to encourage strong growth and consistent yields.
Pollination: Self-fertile; does not require another variety to set crops, though yields improve with multiple nectarines or peaches nearby.
Maintenance: Prune in late winter to shape, encourage airflow, and maintain productive fruiting wood. Thin excess fruit in early summer to improve size and quality.
Hardiness: Best in USDA zones 7–9. Fruit ripens in mid- to late summer, producing firm, vibrant, and tangy-sweet nectarines.
This tree is grafted onto Citation rootstock, selected for its moderate vigor, adaptability across a range of soils, and ability to produce fruit with excellent flavor and quality. Shipped bare-root in a dormancy state, with proper care and planting instructions included.
