Description

Earli Autumn apricot trees provide a delicious late-season harvest, producing large, golden-orange fruit with sweet, flavorful flesh. These apricots are perfect for fresh eating, drying, or making preserves, offering a versatile addition to your garden. Thriving in full sun and well-draining soil, Earli Autumn requires moderate chill hours and is self-fruitful, though planting it near another apricot variety can enhance yields. The tree blooms in early spring, showcasing beautiful flowers that attract pollinators. With its late ripening and high-quality fruit, Earli Autumn extends the apricot season, delivering sweet rewards when most other varieties have finished.
