Aprimira Miracot Trees

Prunus 'Aprimira' Miracot Hybrid Trees for Sale

'Aprimira' is an Apricot Mirabelle hybrid, or Miracot, with medium-apricot-sized, juicy yellow fruit, conveniently free stone, with a mirabelle plum flavour but sweeter.

This self fertile tree fruits in August with a long picking period.
The shelf life is decent for a stone fruit, over a week in the fridge: the smell of the fruit alone is irresistible, so it shouldn't sit around for long!

• Cross between Apricot & Mirabelle
• Suitable for small gardens
• Very sweet, juicy fruit
• Free stone 
• Self fertile
• Semi-dwarfing Wavit rootstock (low vigour, but lots of fruit)
• Pollination Group A & B - Great for pollinating all early flowering trees in the plum family 
• RHS Plants for Pollinators

This Miracot is grown on a Wavit rootstock, which gives medium-to-low vigour, only reaching about 3 metres tall, making it suitable for small gardens.

It's a hardy tree, but like its Apricot parent requires full sun to crop well. A sheltered site near a South facing wall is perfect. 
It needs good drainage, and is not recommended for chalky soil.
