Specially bred for the cooler UK climate, to produce huge crops of large egg sized orange/red delicious fruits with improved colour, texture and flavour. Being late flowering it is also frost resistant so you always get a crop.
Excellent used for cooking as well as sweet and juicy when eaten fresh from the tree, just like a peach, in August.
Grafted onto a specialist apricot rootstock called 'Torrinel' which is semi-dwarfing, and will produce you a medium sized 2-2.5m (7-8ft), manageable tree for the small garden and is proven to give a bigger crop of apricots. Due to modern breeding techniques and yield improvements it is now easy for the home gardener to grow and enjoy these exotic fruits.
