Your tree has peach leaf curl. Yes it infects nectarines also. You need to spray 2-3 times between leaf fall and bud swell in spring. Spraying after bud swell does no good because the leaves are already infected.

Collect infected leaves and dispose of them in the trash.

Here is a link that might be useful: peach leaf curl management
