Peaches and nectarines are not only sweeter, softer and more fragrant when they're fully ripe, they also contain more vitamin C. These closely related tree fruits are good sources of beta-carotene, vitamin C, niacin and potassium. They also supply some fibre and, gram for gram, contain more potassium than a navel orange.
