Panamint Nectarine

Panamint Nectarine

Panamint is a beautiful nectarine that is a great choice for growers in low chill climates, such as Southern California and other warm climates, but also performs wonderfully in northern climates so long as there are not hard late frosts. Fruits are large and freestone with a red skin and yellow flesh that is incredibly aromatic with a perfect balance of acids and sugars.
