Apricot Trees
If you think apricots won’t grow in the UK, think again! These new varieties have been specially developed to deal with lower temperatures and to crop reliably year after year. Premium, well-sized trees with inbuilt disease resistance, our growers have chosen just a few of the best for our collection. They’re hardy enough to grow outdoors in warmer parts of the UK and compact enough to grow in pots further north. Forget the flavourless imported version and rediscover what apricots are meant to taste like.
