How do I plant a nectarine tree?
To plant a nectarine tree in the ground, it is best to do so in autumn to allow the tree to root properly before winter. Choose a sunny spot sheltered from the wind. The soil should be well-drained and rich in organic matter. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and add compost or decomposed manure. Place the tree in the centre of the hole, ensuring that the crown is level with the ground. Fill in with a mixture of soil and compost and tamp lightly. Water thoroughly after planting.
