Harcot Apricot Tree

Harcot apricot trees are prized for their cold hardiness and exceptional fruit quality. The medium-sized fruit has bright orange skin with a reddish blush and firm, sweet, aromatic flesh. Harcot is excellent for fresh eating, canning, and drying. This variety is self-fruitful and thrives in full sun with well-draining soil, requiring moderate chill hours—making it suitable for cooler climates with late frosts.
