Understanding Plant Options
Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age
- Bare Root Plants: Dormant plants without soil, sized by height measurements
Container Plant Sizes
Container sizes indicate plant age and growing capacity rather than liquid volume equivalents. Our containers follow industry-standard nursery "trade gallon" specifications, which differ from standard liquid gallon measurements.

If you are looking to grow Nectarines in your home orchard, you'll want to look at this taste test winner. Featuring blushed red, medium-sized fruit and a beautiful creamy-white, delicious flesh. Arctic Rose Nectarine (Prunus persica var. nucipersica 'Arctic Rose') is as beautiful to look at as it is to taste.
Arctic Rose will produce lots of medium-sized fruit which can be picked early and enjoyed while still firm. This variety scores very well in taste tests. The Arctic Rose has an exotic flavor with a real snap to the skin that remains throughout harvest. There is a firm texture when first 'tree ripe', then the flesh smooths out as it ripens until it finishes with a melting texture. Some prefer to eat Arctic Rose when it is firm ripe with its crunchy, sweet flavor while others prefer to wait until the flesh of Arctic Rose becomes smooth and candy-sweet.
Even when picked while still firm, this medium-sized fruit is still sweet as a perfect summer nectarine should be. The firm flesh means that Arctic Rose keeps longer when picked, stands up to shipping, that way you can send some home with your friends and family, and keeps its shape when being baked into scrumptious pies.
Planting and Application:
The fragrant drifts of pink blossoms in spring make this tree worthwhile for your yard alone! Use these smaller trees for both front and back yard ornamental landscaping and pinpoint shade around seating and garden beds.
Keep pruned for hedges and in groupings for privacy or property definition that also fills your fruit bowls. We guarantee the neighbors won't mind this delicious friendly fence. Birds and butterflies also adore these trees and their blossoms!
- Super Sweet Rosy-Red Blushed Fruit
- Prolific Producer & Midseason Harvest
- Crunchy Texture
- Creamy White Colored Flesh
- Glorious Pink Blossoms
#ProPlantTips for Care:
Provide even moisture to establish, and then give water as needed throughout the growing season. Fruit trees do best in full sun and enriched, organic well-drained soil, topped with a healthy layer of Arborist mulch chips.
