Description

An apricot variety that can withstand cold winters. Researchers bred this tree in Michigan’s snow belt, so you can depend on its hardiness, vigor and production consistency, even in areas with lower-temperature climates. The fruit has a deep, tangy flavor — perfect for fresh eating or canning. Originates from Michigan, introduced in 1967. Freestone. Cold-hardy. Ripens in early July. Self-pollinating.

I wanted a cold hardy apricot. We're a little warmer than Michigan, so I expect this will work well in our yard.

More hardy for our area.

I raised 5 acres of apricots years ago……this sounds like a good cross will let you know. I no longer have 5 acres this will be the only one I have. ( I really like and miss a fresh cot )
