Hardy Apricots for Northern Planting 
Highly Ornamental and Valuable Fruit Trees 
In shape and color the Apricot resembles the Peach, but in texture and 
smoothness of its skin, it is more like the plum. It has a most delicious flavor 
and, in addition to being very desirable for eating fresh, is much prized for 
canning and drying. It is a delightful addition to any home planting, not only 
because of the delicious fruit, but for the exquisite beauty of the blossoms. 
Considered as an ornamental tree alone, the Apricot is unsurpassed. 
Our fine, large, thrifty, Northern grown Apricot trees are budded on plum 
roots and are much hardier than Southern grown stock and are longer lived than 
Apricots that are budded on peach. Trees grown as we produce them may cost 
you a little more, but they are the best for both the North and the South. Two 
trees are recommended for better pollination to insure an abundant crop. 
MOORPARK. The best of the European varieties. The finest quality of 
any Apricot grown. Large orange-yellow fruit with red cheek. Juicy, rich and 
sweet. Freestone. Ripens in August. Hardy but not recommended in the far 
North because of frost damage to the early flowers. 
SUPERB. The hardiest and best of the Russian varieties. Hardier than 
the Peach and the fruit ripens a month earlier. The latest Apricot to bloom and 
is recommended for localities where late frosts may damage earlier blooming 
varieties. Fruit medium size and of a golden-salmon color. Good quality, fine 
flavor and freestone. Ripens in July.
