Nectarina is a late-ripening cherry variety distinguished by high winter hardiness, regular fruiting, and adaptability to growing conditions. The tree is vigorous with a broad, moderately dense pyramidal crown, beginning to bear fruit on the 4th–5th year after planting. Fruits of this variety weigh about 6.5 grams, have a firm, elastic dark-red skin that turns nearly black and glossy upon full ripening.
The flesh of Nectarina’s fruits is dark-red, juicy, and aromatic with a slightly fibrous texture. The flavor is characterized by wine-like sweetness with a refreshing acidity, making the berries especially appealing for fresh consumption. Fruits ripen in the third decade of July and can remain on the tree for 10–15 days without losing their flavor.
This cherry variety is well-suited for cultivation in various climatic conditions due to its cold and disease resistance. The tree forms a wide crown, promoting good air circulation and fruit exposure. Nectarina is also an excellent pollinator for other cherry varieties, enhancing overall garden yield.
