1 Live Plant Apricot Tree Prunus armeniaca Sweet Fruit Orchard Garden
Apricot trees are deciduous fruiting trees valued for their early spring blossoms and sweet, golden-orange fruit. This live seedling offers a rewarding long-term project for home orchardists, patio growers, and anyone looking to add a productive, ornamental tree to a sunny landscape.
Apricot seedlings grow into graceful, spreading trees with fragrant pinkish-white flowers in early spring followed by fruit in summer. They work well as a focal point in a backyard orchard, edible garden, or large container while young. Grow in full sun with well-draining soil and consistent moisture; fruit production typically begins after a few years of establishment.
