Description
- A compact and heavy cropping apricot variety that’s specially bred for success in the UK climate
- Sweet and tasty apricots with a deep orange skin and flesh – perfect for eating straight off the tree or using in desserts and smoothies. These are nothing like the tasteless apricots in the shops, but juicy and full of flavour
- Can be grown as a freestanding tree (we recommend planting in full sun next to a fence or wall) or fan trained
- Fruits are ready to harvest in late July
- White-blush pink blossom in April and May
- Highly attractive to wildlife and pollinating insects – a very beneficial tree for the whole garden!
- Grows to a compact height of 3.6m, making it suitable for patio pots
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
