Supplied as a bare root tree pruned to approximately 3-4 ft (90-120cm) tall including roots.
This Product is Available Now.Originating from Canada, this fairly new variety is renowned for it extreme hardiness.
Produces heavy yields of deep orange-red fruits that are 'freestone' (the flesh comes away from the stone easily). Extremely good disease resistance - and of course, like all Apricots, it is not prone to peach leaf curl.
Suitable for both growing under protection and outside - its hardiness making it particularly useful for outdoor situations.
