Evaluation
This early ripening, self-fertile Apricot guarantees regular and high yields. The very attractive fruits are well sized among high productivity. The fruit flesh is remarkably firm.
The susceptibility to ESFY should be considered for choice of site.
A minimum order of 25 trees per fruit grower is required.
