Crossword Genius

The strange transience of fruit (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nectarines

'fruit' is the definition.
(I know that nectarines is a fruit)

'the strange transience' is the wordplay.
'the strange' indicates anagramming the letters.
'transience' with letters rearranged gives 'NECTARINES'.

'of' acts as a link.
