When I originally purchased two plants, they were advertised as bushes that would reach a maximum height and spread of four feet. One of the plants died. The other grew, and grew. I had to cut it down because it grew too large for the space allotted. I am glad to see that the plant description has been corrected, but that does not solve the annoyance of lost time and investment in a plant that failed to meet the promised expectations.

Shipped and planted in 2007. Now in 2010 they are over 8 feet tall and covered in fruit. Looking forward to tasting them in a few weeks. Care free, planted them and left them alone, no extra care was given to them at all. Great choice for anyone with little time to be fussing with plants.

Not for Zone 8-9
Reviewed By: Tim A. (Wilmington, NC)
Despite what the product detail section states, Manchurian Bush Apricots will NOT do well in zone 8 and 9 climates. They do not appreciate long periods of hot, humid weather like found in the coastal Southeast, and they require more winter chilling hours than a warm climate can usually provide. After four years, my two Manchurian Bush Apricots have struggled to grow at all given these conditions.
