APRICOT TREES 
The Apricot is one of the most delicious fruits, and is as 
hardy as the peach and plum. Apricots have a tendency to 
bloom early, and get nipped by late freezes and frosts. 
However, the varieties we offer are late bloomers, and will 
usually bear a crop. Apricots seem to do better planted in 
the back yard, or somewhere where too much cultivation 
is not carried on. When they do make a crop, they make 
up for lost time. Try some.

tops. Most of these trees will bear the year following plant- 
ing. Our plums are grown from buds taken from clean, 
healthy trees that we know are true to name, as they have 
been bearing for years. In the varieties shown below, you 
will find varieties for all parts of the country, from Rio
