  • Variety features: 'Flavourcot' is a reliable, self-fertile variety known for producing large, sweet, and aromatic apricots with orange-red skin. It flowers late in the season, helping the blossoms avoid damage from late spring frosts.
  • Growing conditions: Thrives in a warm, sunny, and sheltered position, such as a south-facing wall, which aids fruit ripening. Prefers well-drained, neutral to slightly alkaline soil.
  • Container growing: Ideally suited for patios; select a pot with a minimum diameter of 45-50cm (approx. 30-40 litres). Use a loam-based compost like John Innes No. 3 with added grit to ensure excellent drainage.
  • Planting bare root: Soak the roots for 1-2 hours before planting. Dig a hole large enough to spread the roots out fully, ensuring the graft union (the bulge on the stem) sits just above the soil line, backfill, and firm in well.
  • Training: Supplied as a 3ft bare root tree grafted onto semi-dwarfing rootstock, naturally forming a compact bush habit that requires only light summer pruning to maintain an open center.
