Description
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.
- Season of use July - August.
- Self Fertile - but pollination by another apricot will maximise yield.
- Grown on St Julien A rootstock for an ultimate (un-pruned) height of 12 - 15 feet (3.65 - 4.6 metres) but can easily be kept at a height of 6 - 8 feet (1.8 - 2.4 metres).
