Moorpark

Our favourite well-know old-style apricot with great flavour. Unlike the more modern varieties, the fruit are a little smaller but the flavour more intense. A classic apricot colour - orange with a red blush on the sunny side. Does well in dry summers. Makes a compact tree and is self fertile. These can be espaliered in a Fan shape only or be grown on a trellis. See the article on Apricots for details.

  • Ripening Time: January - February
  • Fertility: Self-Fertile, produces viable pollen
  • Growth Habit: Can be espaliered using the "fan" style only. Free standing tree grows to around 3 - 5m tall.
  • Rootstock: Non-dwarfing rootstock
  • Chill Tolerance: Normal chill
  • Pollination is far simpler than most people think. Generally, unless self fertile simply get 2 or more different varieties in the same group (eg pears) to ensure adequate pollination. A more comprehensive explanation can be found in our Pollination Guide
