Apricot Trees
Another old world fruit that is mostly self fertile, the Apricot grows well in temperate climates. Planting on a south facing slope helps to avoid those late Spring frosts that damage the blooms. Apricots usually do not require a pollinator and do well in gardens where space is limited. Apricots can be trained to grow in numerous shapes and enjoy annual pruning. The tree should be thinned if too many fruits populate its branches. These trees are grafted and while an apricot tree will grow from the stone, it will not resemble the parent plant and will probably not produce fruit.
We categorize our apple trees into four sizes: Maiden, Field Ready, Hand Select, and (3 or 5) Gallon Container depending on the size of the tree. Maiden trees are usually 2 years old and are branchless. These are also called whips and will bear in 2-3 years. A Field Ready tree is 2-3 years old and might have some lateral branching, be thicker above the graft, and will bear in 1-2 years. The Hand Select trees are only about 20% of trees we have and are 3 year old trees, 6-9' tall and can be heavily branched. You can expect fruiting on a Hand Select tree in about a year.
