QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • Will apriums pollinate apricots?

    Yes they should.

  • Is this aprium recommended for Western Washington? ( Seattle)

    Outside of a greenhouse? No. It can be grown in a greenhouse if you provide the extra heat it needs to ripen fully.

  • Will this pollinate other apricot or plum or plumcot trees? It does better when there is another pollinator around, but does it help to pollinate the other trees?

    Fruit set is best with any another full blood Apricot that blooms in your area.

  • is it really self fertile or does it need an pricoot to pollenize it

    It is actually self fertile and does not require another apricot to make fruit.

I am very happy with my happy little tree

I've had this tree in a pot for about a year to baby and get a good, strong root system. It has been in the ground for a bit and is greening out even more than last year. I am particularly happy with the pruning/branch angles that the tree had on arrival. This tree was obviously well tended to before it found a home in my garden. I'm excited to taste them, but if it flowers this year I will nip them so the roots grow in better. Overall I had a great experience with this grower and will buy from them again ^____^
