Description

One of the best apricots in cultivation! Fruit has a pleasant apricot flavor with plenty of juice, sensational for fresh-eating, canning, and even drying. High in vitamins and antioxidants. Tree is hardy and a beauty in the landscape with heart-shaped foliage and showy pink-white spring blossoms – an early wildlife attractant! Flowers give way to large, golden-yellow fruits in summer. Introduced in the late 1600s. Freestone. Ripens in mid-July. Self-pollinating.

I know they’re good apricots

Zone 4

I wanted an apricot tree that would taste well for fresh eating and do well in self pollination.

My other Apricot tree isn't producing fruit. Hoping another Apricot tree will help.
