Genetically, nectarines are almost identical to peaches, differing only by having fuzzless skin. Selective breeding has also led to characteristic nectarine flavors and textures distinguishable from peach. The DWN home garden nectarine varieties - white and yellow, subacid and balanced, low-chill and cold hardy, taste test winners - are the best selection anywhere.
