            APRICOTS

 HINTS FOR PLANTING APRICOTS- Apricots are very susceptible to "Wet Feet".  It is always best to plant on very well drained soil.  If you have marginal soil, planting on a large berm about 1 ft. high with a 10 ft. diameter will extend the life of your trees dramatically.

ALFRED.  Very hardy New York introduction.  Medium-small fruit.  Very good flavor.  Dependably productive.    Not budded for 2011   

HARCOT  This early variety matures a week before Goldcot.  Fruit is medium size, attractive orange with slight blush.  Very good sweet flavor, fine texture.  Cold hardy; moderately tolerant of bacterial spot.   

HARGLO  Relatively dependable production.  For fresh market, PYO, home gardening.  Suitable for home canning.  Fruits are medium size, bright orange, freestone, firm, sweet.  Compact, late-blooming, productive tree.  Moderately resistant to perennial canker, brown rot and bacterial spot.  Self-fertile (but it's prudent to have pollenizer variety).
