Fruit: Medium to large, nearly round fruit. Golden yellow skin
| Comments: Moderately thick, tough, golden yellow skin. Juicy, fine textured, medium orange, freestone flesh. Fertilize after tree has reached bearing age. Plant with graft 1/2 inch above ground. Thin fruits to develop largest size of remaining fruit. Tangy flavor. Consistently heavy bearer. Somewhat resistant to bacterial leaf spot. Special considerations: prepare an area 36 inches in diameter clearing sod and weeds. Work the soil 24 inches deep. Dig the planting hole right before planting,deep enough and wide enough to accommodate the roots without crowding. Plant bareroot trees 1 inch deeper than they were grown in the nursery. Plant grafted trees with the graft union one inch above the soil - 2 to 3 inches is better. Never let the roots dry out. Soak the roots no more than 24 hours prior to planting. Fill hole with soil and firm around the roots. Water well to remove any air pockets. Fill in the rest of the hole with soil and water again. Only mix a slow release fertilizer into the planting hole.

PLEASE DON'T let those hard, bitter things you see in the grocery store diswade you from planting an apricot tree or 2!
Just like their other stone fruit cousins, Apricots are great for fresh eating, canning and preserves. To can or preserve, treat like a peach and you will not go wrong.  - Sunday, August 10, 2008 Love my Tree Reviewed By: Michelle (n/a, North Dakota) I moved into a house & there was a unknown tree in the backyard. An apricot tree!!! They are so delicious. The one in the store fail to compare to these. Great Tree & Great Fruit. Read More Reviews
