USA:
Most items ship from our warehouse in Milwaukee, WI, but if you are ordering a heavy or oversized item, we often have the manufacturer ship it directly to you to reduce shipping costs and save you money. Shipping rates are calculated at checkout based on shipment weight and destination. Eartheasy can ship to residential and commercial addresses in all 50 US States, but unfortunately oversized products do not ship to Alaska or Hawaii. If you are in Alaska or Hawaii and have your heart set on an oversized item, give us a call and we’ll try our best to help you with a freight quote. Unfortunately we do not ship to U.S. Territories or U.S. military installations at this time, but we are working on making these options available soon.

Canada:
Please check product pages to see whether your product is eligible for shipping to Canada, as unfortunately there are some products we cannot ship across the border. Canadian orders ship weekly on Thursdays via Purolator International and shipping costs include duties and taxes. Unfortunately, expedited shipping to Canada is not available at this time.

International:
Unfortunately we cannot ship internationally, including Mexico or freight forwarders. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Processing Time & Shipping Charges:
The "Lead Time" on a product specifies the number of business days for your item to be prepared by our warehouse. The Lead Time does not include the date the order is placed. This also applies for all shipping methods, including express methods. If your item is shipping freight, you will receive a call to schedule the delivery with your driver. If your shopping cart has multiple items, a shipping charge may apply even if some items are listed as "Free Shipping", as charges apply to items rather than total cart quantities.

Overview

The Harcot Apricot Tree, introduced in 1977 and developed in Canada, lets home orchardists enjoy the simple pleasures of growing sun-ripened apricots in their own backyard. You’ll find countless uses for these delectable all-natural snacks, and every year you’ll want to try new recipes.

Most apricot trees open their delicate blossoms in very early spring, making them vulnerable to late frosts, which can ruin the crop. Researchers worked on developing later-blooming hardy apricot trees as part of an extensive fruit tree breeding program. At least five different trees were used in breeding the Harcot. Besides being hardy to cold and a late bloomer, this variety shows resistance to three diseases that can afflict apricots: bacterial spot, brown rot, and perennial canker. 

Features & Benefits:

  • "Prunus armeniaca 'Harcot'"
  • Grows in full sun
  • Disease resistant variety
  • Rich in vitamin A
  • White blooms in late spring
  • Fruiting in mid summer
  • Arrives bare root, roughly 48" tall and 18" wide
  • Semi dwarf, mature size ranges from 12-15' tall and 8-10' wide
  • Grown & shipped from the USA

Please note, unfortunately at this time we cannot ship apricot trees into CA,CO,ID,OR,WA.

Care Instructions:

Watering: Water your apricot daily for the first 3-5 weeks; then water 2-3 times a week for the remainder of the year until winter. Watering needs may be altered due to extreme weather conditions. Continue to water during droughts or extreme heat for the first couple years. 

Soil/Conditions: Apricots prefers well-draining, acidic, moist loam or sandy soil. 

Apricots enjoy lots of sun and warm summer weather, and do especially well in dry climates. They appreciate regular irrigation, but excess moisture must drain freely, as soggy soil will cause root rot.

Shipping & Delivery:

All Bower & Branch plants are fresh from the grower and shipped in specialized grower packaging. Plants are shipped on specific days depending on your location to reduce days in transit. 

Apricot starts shipping mid February and continues through May. Shipping is not available year-round. 

Please note, unfortunately at this time we cannot ship apricot trees into CA,CO,ID,OR,WA.

About Bower & Branch:

Founded 30 years ago by the Eaton family on their 175-acre farm in Pennsylvania, Bower & Branch is now a group of growers and independents who share a common passion for trees and the people who plant them. Bower & Branch is devoted to helping homeowners make better decisions when it comes to choosing, planting, and caring for their trees and plants.
