HARGLOW APRICOT

(10 customer reviews)

$67.95

COMING SOON

This selection from the Harrow Research Station here in Ontario gets a glowing review from Bob Purvis the apricot guru. Medium sized fruit has exceptional flavour and texture. When ripe the bright orange, red-blushed skin is almost luminous, giving rise to the 'Harglow' name. Like all the Harrow Series, it scores high on disease resistance, will take fluctuating winter temperatures well and blooms relatively late.

Growing Tips

Apricot / Peach Growing Tip

One of the key factors that determines cold-hardiness for tender fruit trees such as apricots and peaches is how well they harden off in the fall. Any activity that stimulates growth should be avoided after August 1. This includes fertilizing, overly frequent watering and pruning.


Product Overview
Apricot (Prunus armeniaca) Homegrown, tree-ripened apricots are healthy, delicious eating- fresh, canned or dried. Apricot trees are notorious for waking up too early in the spring, and then getting their blossoms zapped by a late frost. You can help by planting on a sheltered north-facing slope. Another trick some old-timers used was spreading a layer of compost or horse-manure under the tree in early winter AFTER the ground was frozen. This slows down soil (and root) warm up in spring, consequently also delaying budbreak. We try to help by offering some of the later-blooming varieties. 1.25-2m (4-6') bareroot trees

    The shipment arrived as dated, the order was expertly packed and everything is already starting to bud out! The fig tree is beautiful. Will continue to order from Wiffletree - the best!

  2. Karen H. (verified owner) –

    Apricots are very vigorously growing trees. I got three others from you in the past; they are huge now. It just crossed my mind that instead of waiting for the green giant cedars to make a tall enough screen hedge, apricots would certainly beat them. 😉

What is Orchard Grade?

An 'orchard grade' is a tree that may be somewhat shorter, slightly crooked, or a bit scratched, or for some other reason is not a perfect front lawn specimen. These trees will work just as well in an orchard as a first or number one would, since they still produce the very same fruit.

What is a 2 year old tree?

A '2 year old tree' is one that has grown an extra season in our nursery field.

All our trees are planted in the field in the spring as rootstock. They are grafted in August of the 1st year. Most of our trees are dug out in November of the 2nd year. Some trees are in the ground for another season. We dig these in November of the 3rd year. These are considered to be '2 year old trees'.

A '2 year old tree' has bigger roots, a thicker trunk, and more branching (They might start fruiting a year earlier).
