I wish I could give each one of you one of these early apricots. They are almost red, they are fragrant, and the taste is out of this world. I have never tasted any better than this. Almost makes picking them in 100 degree temps worth it!

I wish I could take you up on the offer, Kat! I've been in California and eaten fresh, ripe apricots right off the tree, and they are NOTHING like store-bought! Your picture brings back so many memories!

You are so right, Kathy...SO different from what
you get in the store, and these early ones are
seriously yummy!

I've tried growing them here in NC, Kat, and had no luck at all. The biggest problem is, they bloom so early that frosts carry off the blossoms. Have had pollination problems too, and problems just keeping the trees alive... one of a pair I bought that were supposed to pollinate each other, died this spring for no reason I could determine. The other is doing fine but has no pollination partner now. There is a pick-your-own orchard up in the mountains that has cherries, peaches, and sometimes apricots, but the only time I went there to get apricots, other people wanted them too, with the result that they were picking everything on the trees whether it was ripe or not.

I know what you mean, Kathy! We had virtually no
apricots, cherries or peaches last year due to
three late frosts. It even hurt the apples and
pears. With fruit trees, you pray a lot!
Delana, you should smell these..when you have a
box full, the scent is divine! Like perfume!
Ooops..you slipped in while I was typing. Thanks, Linda,
but it's not an ac. Glad you liked it, though!:-)

Thanks, Carol, Peg and Lori. Haha, Peg..who
would have ever thought of a sentence like "come
to Florida to cool off"..but it's tempting! COOL
sounds mighty good to me. Lori, you are so right..
it is darned uncivilized, especially when you have
many in a row. The weatherman made me laugh when
he said we were going to have a bit of a "cool down"..
yep..97! Yeah..that'll help.
