Semi Dwarf Spice Zee Nectaplum Tree (Nectarine & Plum Cross) on Citation (Prunus hybrid ‘Spice Zee’) is a unique interspecific fruit that blends nectarine and plum into one remarkable variety. Its glossy, smooth-skinned fruit has a deep, ruby-red blush over creamy white flesh, delivering an aromatic, complex flavor that is both spicy-tart and honey-sweet. Excellent for fresh eating, fruit salads, or preserves, Spice Zee is also highly ornamental, with vibrant spring blossoms and attractive burgundy-hued foliage. Grafted onto Citation rootstock, it offers moderate vigor, adaptability, and dependable production—making it a showpiece in both home orchards and edible landscapes.
Light: Requires full sun to ensure maximum fruit sweetness, color, and consistent yields.
Soil: Best in fertile, well-drained soil; amend with compost or organic matter to improve texture and fertility.
Water: Water deeply and regularly during active growth and fruit development. Reduce watering after harvest.
Fertilizer: Apply a balanced orchard fertilizer in early spring and midsummer to support steady growth and abundant crops.
Pollination: Self-fertile; does not require another tree for pollination, though yields are often improved with nearby plums or nectarines.
Maintenance: Prune in late winter to maintain structure, remove crossing branches, and encourage fresh fruiting wood. Thin fruit in early summer for larger, higher-quality harvests.
Hardiness: Best grown in USDA zones 6–10. Fruit ripens in mid- to late summer, offering both ornamental beauty and flavorful harvests.
This tree is grafted onto Citation rootstock, valued for its controlled vigor, soil adaptability, and ability to produce high-quality fruit. Shipped bare-root in a dormancy state, with proper care and planting instructions included.
