Apricot Trees

Apricots and Apricot trees have a long, rich history of cultivation, originating from across the sun-soaked Middle East, Mediterranean and Asia. More recently colonisation and human travel has seen Apricot trees introduced to far-flung corners of the world, with cultivars cropping up and being established throughout America and Australia. The good news is that because Apricots are hardier than their peach 'cousins' and prefer a period of cold dormancy, they can easily be grown in our British climate.

During the 'dormant season' of November through to April the Apricot trees for sale in our online catalogue are supplied direct as pruned bare root trees, ready for planting into the ground. During the late Spring and Summer we are able to provide our Apricot Trees as as pot-grown specimens.

Although our Apricot tree listing doesn't represent a full itinerary of all apricot trees suited to growing in the diverse British climate, it does represent the 'cream of the crop'. We have taken the time to carefully research and trial each apricot tree variety that you see on offer. As such, we list only what we believe to be the best of the bunch, with flavour as the defining factor in our selection process.

As with many products within our website, the more you buy, the more you save! Buy three, five or more Apricot, Peach or Nectarine trees and you can enjoy extra discounts per tree on your order. For advice or recommendations on the best Apricot tree for your garden, allotment, greenhouse or conservatory, why not call Victoriana Nursery Gardens today and we'll be more than happy to help.
