Flavortop Nectarine

I ordered a flavortop because I have seen reviews that they are a tasty choice. The tree was in good shape upon arrival but very small. I have seen them at a local garden center that was much bigger for almost half the price. Rain tree has good quality but on the pricey side.

I and my daughter have ordered some excellent plants from Raintree, especially Blueberries and Lingonberries, and two peach trees that came with impressive girth and roots out of the box. This one does not compare with those healthy, developed specimens. It has such a weak root system and spindly trunk that I hope it will grow in three years into a stronger plant. It may take much longer before it can bear any fruit.

I have bought this tree two times now and each time it comes very small, tree size about the size of a pencil, maybe a little bigger. The are hardy any roots on them and neither tree has survived. Very disappointed in this tree.
