The Karla Rose nectarine is a self-fertile, semi-free stone variety with a compact growth habit and white, sweet-tart flesh under red skin. It produces beautiful light-pink blossoms in the spring, a reliable yield of medium-sized fruit in late June or mid-June, and is well-adapted to warm climates, particularly in USDA Zones 5-8 and 8-9. The nectarines are excellent for fresh eating due to their juicy, sweet flavor.
