Red Gold nectarine (Prunus persica var. nectarina 'Red Gold') is an upright branching deciduous/ornamental fruiting tree. Spring brings abundant bright pink flowers. The leaves are mid green and lance-shaped. Though not large in stature, Red Gold will produce fruit abundantly. Thin out the fruit in late-spring to keep the tree healthy and to produce large fruit.  Fall significance; the leaves a bright yellow before they fall. The fruit is freestone, tangy honeyed flavor. Red Gold nectarines are best eaten fresh, right off the tree, with the skin on. This creates the combination perfect combination of sweetness and tart flavoring and will always leave you wanting more. The nectarine is also widely adaptable and low-maintenance so you don't need to go the extra mile for home-grown fruit when you grow a Red Gold.
