Nectarine, Karla Rose
Prunus persica var. nucipersica 'Karla Rose'
Karla Rose Nectarine is a mid-season, yellow-fleshed nectarine variety known for its large, vibrant fruit with a deep red skin and rich, sweet-tart flavor. This freestone nectarine has firm, juicy flesh that is ideal for fresh eating, baking, and preserving. Ripening in mid-summer, Karla Rose delivers a delicious, high-quality harvest when many other varieties are at their peak. The tree is self-pollinating and produces beautiful pink blossoms in early spring, attracting bees and other pollinators while adding ornamental value to home orchards and gardens. Karla Rose is well-adapted to warm climates, making it a reliable choice for growers seeking consistent yields and great-tasting fruit.
