One of the earliest fruits of the year and one of the tastiest too! Flavor Giant produces huge crops of the largest apricots we’ve ever seen. Orange skin and flesh has a sweet-tart, well balanced flavor. Ripens in late June here in Oregon and requires a mild climate without late frosts in order to set good crops.
One of the earliest fruits of the year and one of the tastiest too! Flavor Giant Apricot produces huge crops of the largest apricots we’ve ever seen. Orange skin and flesh has a sweet-tart, well balanced flavor. Ripens in late June here in Oregon and requires a mild climate without late frosts in order to set good crops.
Delectably sweet and tender, fully ripe Apricots are a unique tasty treat. Difficult to ship when ripe, Apricots are best grown at home or purchased from a local farmer. Apricots like half day to full day sun, well drained soil, and begin bearing in 2-3 years. To help prevent disease problems, spray with copper in fall and again in winter and early spring during dry spells.
