Notes

'Garden Annie' apricot (Prunus armeniaca 'Garden Annie') is a shrub for pollinator gardens, specimen planting, and food gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Fragrant pale pink flowers open in early to late spring. They attract butterflies and bees. The broad shape grows 96 to 120 inches tall and 120 to 144 inches wide, so give it room.

Pairs well with Serviceberry, Fountain grass, Greig's tulip, and Boxwood.
