Variety description

10 August 2026

Fruits of the Ruby Gem variety are characterized by high quality, sweet taste, and the presence of firm white flesh. The variety belongs to late maturity groups; harvesting occurs in early September.

The plant possesses high yield. To achieve optimal fruit size, regular thinning of ovaries on the tree is required. In a number of nursery catalogs, the variety is classified as a nectarine, which implies the absence of pubescence on the fruit skin.
