Nectarine Tree (Necta zee) Miniature

Description Necta Zee is a true miniature nectarine designed for patios, containers, and small garden spaces. This genetic dwarf variety naturally stays compact while producing full-size, smooth-skinned nectarines with bright yellow flesh and classic, sweet nectarine flavor. Unlike standard nectarines that require ongoing size control, Necta Zee’s compact form comes from its genetics—short internodes, dense branching, and a naturally tidy shape. It’s an ideal choice for growers who want real fruit on a tree that fits comfortably on a patio, balcony, or in a large container. Overview True miniature nectarine with full-size fruit. Sweet yellow flesh with smooth, fuzz-free skin. Naturally compact growth—no aggressive pruning required. Perfect for patios, containers, and small gardens. Self-fertile—no pollination partner required.

An excellent choice for container growing in 15–25 gallon pots. Ideal for growers who want real fruit without a full-size tree.
