Pollination Info
Snow Queen Nectarine Tree Pollination
Snow Queen Nectarine Trees are self-fertile. You will get fruit with only one plant. However, adding an additional Snow Queen Nectarine Tree will drastically increase the size of your crop.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant your tree in well-drained soil in a location where it will receive full sun (at least 6 to 8 hours of sunlight a day). Heavy winds and early frosts can damage the blossoms, so be sure to protect your tree by planting on the sunniest side of a building or your home.
From there, dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Amend the soil around the hole with compost to ensure the tree has proper drainage.
2. Watering: Keep the soil around the tree moist but not saturated. Watering once a week by leaving a hose at the base of the tree for a few minutes is generally sufficient.
3. Fertilizing: After your tree has been in the ground for six weeks and the danger of frost has passed, apply a well-balanced fertilizer formula, such as 12-12-12.
4. Pruning: Prune the first two years in order to maintain an open center shape and encourage fruit production. Prune your tree in late winter or early spring using pruning shears and making your cuts at a 45-degree angle.
