Caring for Apricot Trees Close up of apricots growing

Apricot trees need well-drained soil for optimum health and production. The soil should be moderately fertile. It is best to thin the fruit early in the season to maximize size and quality. Thin the fruits enough so each individual fruit has about three to five inches of room. Apricot trees are quite handsome trees in the summer, displaying the furrowed bark and heart shaped glossy leaves any aficionado has come to recognize. Pruning fruit trees with care and diligence can ensure better crops and an overall healthier tree. A number of apricot-plum hybrids, such as plum-cot, Pluot and Aprium, have been developed and are gaining popularity. These apricots trees are all orchard quality trees.
