Gurney's ChoiceGoldcot Apricot Trees are a Cold-hardy strain and sets sweet golden fruit by mid-July. Fine for fresh eating, but truly shines as a canner. Flavor, texture and color process without loss of quality. For best yield, Plant 2 or more trees.

Apricots- members of the big Prunus genus-share similar traits. In addition to bearing sweet, juicy fruit, all of these stone fruits have beautiful springtime blossoms and attractive leaves, making them valuable landscaping trees.

Zones 4-7.

Standard sizes not available in CA, OR, WA.

Apricots ARE juicy
Reviewed By: Janice (Rogersville, TN)
Apricots, fresh from the tree are just as SWEET AND JUICY as any yellow peach you will ever eat. 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.
