Cold hardy and widely adapted the Chinese Mormon Apricot has become very popular in cold country selection doing well where other apricot varieties fail. Good flavor and texture along with heavy production are all common features of this variety. Self-fruitful but can benefit from adding another variety to pollinate.
Chinese Mormon produces heavy crops of medium, yellow to orange fruit with excellent flavor and texture very early in the growing season. It blooms late with frost-resistant buds, making it an excellent choice for areas with later Spring frosts. It has what people call a Sweet Pit because you can actually eat the kernel like you would an almond. This Apricot requires about 700 hours of chill time below 45º F.
