QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question

  • Will apriums pollinate apricots?

    Yes they should.

    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.

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

Healthy plant - 100% satisfaction

Got bare root Aprium tree, 5 to 6 feet, in May 2025, plant arrived in last week of May 2025 with no leaves or buds on them, I was skeptical, package said “tree is not dead” so, planted as instructed, in two weeks it looks better than a potted tree I used to buy online.

They kept me updated about expected shipment date, two weeks ahead of time, it helped.

I’m extremely pleased about how a Bare plant with no leaves or buds that came in late spring good in two weeks

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 ^____^

Weirdly-pruned, scraggly upon delivery

I kind of wish they'd just sent me a grafted whip with no branches yet. The tree that I got had a couple of the side branches broken partially off upon delivery, and the remaining ones are looking like they might be a challenge to prune in the future as the tree grows. It's just now starting to leaf out, though, so I can't ask for a replacement. This isn't the robust type of tree I'm used to seeing when I open a Raintree box, but I'll see if it survives its first year in the ground.
