Apricot is a sweet and delicious fruit. Apricots are one of those kinds which are self-fruitful, meaning they don't need any pollination partner. Apricot trees require 600 to 900 cool hours every year at a temperature of 0 to 8 degree celcius.
Low chilling variety of apricot is New Castle.
"New castle" produces a rounded, medium to large yellow-orange fruit with light green shoulders. Its flesh is orange, soft and juicy. It is an early harvest, freestone variety that is self-fertile.
