-WHERE TO BUY-

The perfect complement to the early, super-sweet Arctic Babe. Arctic Sprite yields a white-fleshed, freestone fruit with delightfully tangy-sweet flavor, ripening in late midseason. Spectacular spring bloom. Small, naturally dwarfed tree is very easy to thin and harvest, and easy to cover to protect from spring frost. New selection for the 2020-21season.

Arctic Sprite is featured in the DWN video "Summer Fruit Tour 2020".
