CARMINGO ™ Farely (S)
Apricot, Prunus armeniaca
CARMINGO ™ Farely (S) is a very late-ripening apricot variety that consistently produces ideal yields.
Of particular note is the fruit’s high resistance to cracking.
To ensure the fruit ripens well, cultivation in warm locations is recommended; this allows the sweet flavour to develop fully.
