Abstract

A new and distinct nectarine variety of Prunus persica named ‘NJF20’ is provided. This variety is distinguished from other nectarine varieties by its unique combination of medium sized non-showy flowers, fruit that are flat in shape, and firm melting, yellow, clingstone flesh that has very good eating quality for an early season nectarine due to its very sweet, low acid flavor.
