Notes

'Aprisali' apricot (Prunus armeniaca 'Aprisali') is a tree for food gardens and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is grown for fresh eating and culinary use. The fruit has good flavor and ripens in mid season. Bees and butterflies visit the spring flowers, and the tree is self-fertile, so one tree can set fruit alone.

Pairs well with Crab apple, Ornamental onion, and Feather reed grass.
