Prunus armeniaca 'Flavor Delight'

Flavor Delight Aprium

Flavor Delight Aprium combines apricot and plum ancestry in a fruit with firm yellow flesh. Its flavor brings together qualities of both parents, while its appearance and texture lean toward apricot.

The tree grows vigorously with an upright habit. It can produce fruit on its own, with a larger harvest possible when another apricot supplies pollen.

Plant in full sun with good soil drainage. Its low chilling requirement is fewer than 300 hours.
