Apricot

Apricot trees are a unique addition to the garden with lots of juice and delicate flavours. Very hardy plants that can be grown as a free standing tree. All varieties are self-fertile. Small, juicy and sweet fruits – definitely best when they’re home-grown! Ready for picking from June to September, depending on the variety.

The delicious fruits are perfect for bottling, cooking, eaten straight from the tree or dried. Lovely masses of pink blossom in the spring. Grow well in UK climate.

Some apricot trees are perfect for patio growing or limited spaces, with a maximum height of 2m so can be grown in any sized garden. They can also be trained as a fan against a wall.
