Prunus armeniaca

Also known as the Chinese Golden, Mormon or Large Early Montgamet apricot, although its actual origins may be lost to time. It is called a “sweet pit” because you can eat the kernel like you would an almond, as well as enjoying the flavorful fruit. The tree is medium size, precocious and a heavy bearer. Its golden-orange, medium size fruit is sweet, firm and juicy and ripens over a long period of time.

It’s late blooming (compared to other apricot trees), which makes it an excellent choice for higher elevations or late frost areas. It is winter hardy and self fertile.
