Orchard Tree Bundle Includes:
1 x Puget Gold Apricot (Bare root)
Puget Gold Apricot was developed in western Washington and is the easiest to grow and most disease resistant Apricot variety we have found.
1 x Stella Cherry Tree (Bare root)
A favorite sweet cherry for home gardeners and commercial growers, Stella is prized for its large, sweet and juicy cherries. It makes a great pollenizer for other cherry trees and is also completely self-fertile, so if you only have room for one cherry tree, this is a great option.
1 x Italian Plum Tree (Bare root)
A sweet, dark purple, freestone plum with firm, amber flesh, Italian plum is great for fresh eating and excellent for drying. Widely planted in the Northwest, this European variety is productive, reliable and easy to grow. Italian plum ripens in late August into September.
1 x Snow Queen Nectarine Fruit Tree (Bare root)
This nectarine is one of the sweetest and juiciest of all nectarines, featuring snow white flesh and freestone fruit. It is a consistent taste test winner and constantly astounds the uninitiated with its bright white flesh. Snow Queen is early ripening but prefers a warm climate with low humidity. Performs very well on much of the west coast.
1 x Salish Summer Peach (Q 1-8) (Bare root)
A unique white-flesh variety discovered in Washington State, Salish Summer, formally known as Q 1-8, Peach has showy pink blossoms that are followed by large, reddish-orange, juicy, and flavorful peaches. An excellent variety for Northwest gardeners, Q 1-8 Peach is very resistant to Peach Leaf Curl.
