Hansen Apricot 
NEW HANSEN APRICOTS 
THE SUPER HARDY APRICOT 
Hansen’s new sensational Northwest 
hardy apricot. Recently introduced by 
Prof. N. E. Hansen, of South Dakota 
State College, who has been working for 
many years to produce hardy apricots. 
that would be good eating and large size 
and still would withstand the rigors of 
Dakota’s cold and drought. Two very im- 
portant points of interest stand out in re- 
gard to these new apricots. One is that 
they are perhaps one of the most drought 
resistant of all trees, coming through the 
terrible droughts of 1933, 1934, and 1935 
with flying colors—full foliage and no 
apparent effect whatever from the dry, 
hot weather, and with a great crop of fruit. The 
~gecond point is that they are hardy almost any- 
where in America, standing and bearing well in 
climates getting as low as 50 and 60 below zero. 
HARDY APRICOT PRICES 
18 to 24 inches tall, 85c each; 3 for $2.25.
