Your thoughts will be welcome, I find this very exciting.


Fwiw, I grew 2 nectarine trees in my room at uni. They never got big
enough to flower (I had them about 3 years, they got to around 2 foot tall,
iirc), then they mysteriously died and I couldnt' rescue them.

Good luck, though. Let us know if you get them to flower!
