A sister variety to Flavourcot®, but with a slightly different sugar/acid balance giving the aromatic fruits a more delicate flavour. Delicious eaten straight from the tree, in preserves or served up as a cold or cooked desert. Self fertile.
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.
Apricots may look exotic but they will flourish in a warm, sunny, sheltered position in many parts of the country. Grow them as bushy trees or as fan-trained plants against south facing walls, which act as 'storage heaters' and will protect your plants from any cold winds.
