Notes
'Terute-momo flowering' dwarf nectarine (Prunus persica 'Terute-momo flowering') is a tree for borders, pollinator gardens, and accents. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. Its narrow, upright shape fits tight spaces. The light pink flowers are fragrant and attract butterflies, bees, and birds. It is self-fertile, so one tree can set fruit on its own.
Pairs well with Chives, Nasturtium, Calendula, and Feather reed grass.
