Plant details
Meet this plant.
Hardired produces smooth-skinned nectarines with red skin and yellow flesh for fresh eating or cooking. This is a live fruit tree for an outdoor orchard, with supplied height options to help you choose your starting size.
Choose your plant
Options: 3-4 ft.; 6-7 ft.; 5-6 ft.; 4-5 ft.. Select an in-stock option above. Each option supplies one live plant. Container size or supplied height is not a mature landscape dimension. Plant shape and fullness vary; decorative containers are not included.
Growing notes
Hardired is self-fertile, so a second nectarine variety is not required for pollination. It still needs suitable winter chilling, good growing conditions and time to establish; fruit or flowers are not guaranteed at delivery. Plant in full sun with well-drained soil, water during establishment and plan for pruning and fruit thinning. Check local nectarine-growing suitability before ordering, especially where winters are warm. Cold hardiness does not make blossoms immune to a late frost. Final size depends on rootstock, site and pruning; the supplied height is not the mature height.

Questions about plant options, delivery, tracking, or an order? Inty is here to help before and after your purchase.
Will my plant look exactly like the photo?
Live plants naturally vary in height, branching, leaf count, color, and shape. Photos show the variety and typical presentation.
Can items arrive separately?
Yes. Plants can have different preparation times and packaging needs, so one order may receive more than one tracking number.
What should I do when it arrives?
Unpack promptly, inspect the plant, water only when needed, and let it acclimate before making major care changes.
