Commonly Asked Questions
Can I grow an apricot tree in the UK?
Yes, you can! However, it’s advisable to invest in a grafted apricot tree from a reputable UK supplier, as shop-bought fruit stones may not be suitable for the UK climate.
Where do apricot trees grow best?
Apricot trees perform best in areas with dry spring weather, full sun, good air movement, and well-drained soil. They need 600 to 900 chill hours (temperatures below 45°F).
How long does it take to get fruit from an apricot tree?
Cropping typically starts in 3 to 4 years for apricots planted in the ground. For potted apricots, you may see fruits within 2 years. Shelter and sun are key for potted trees.
How tall do apricot trees grow?
Standard apricot trees mature to about 15-25 feet tall and 20 feet wide, making them ideal for larger gardens or those looking for shade trees.
Are apricot trees hardy?
Absolutely! Apricot trees are very hardy and self-fertile, providing an abundance of juicy, sweet fruits when grown in favourable conditions.
