Diablotina (S)

Nectarine, Prunus nucipersica

Diablotina (S) is a very interesting nectarine novelty, which stands out from the previous varieties in particular due to its completely intensely red-coloured flesh.

This late ripening nectarine convinces with an early setting, ideal to high yield and good fruit sizes, even in years with late frosts during flowering.

Diablotina (S) is recommended for organic growing because of its robustness. Even in very humid years, this variety is not very susceptible to Monilia laxa/Monilia frutigena (tip drought/fruit rot) and is tolerant to Taphrina deformans (peach leaf curl).

Other exceptional fruit characteristics are the excellent colouring, excellent flavour, texture and juiciness.

The fruits are mainly for direct marketing and should be harvested when ripe for consumtion, as the acidity only reduces when mature.
