Flowering Apricot Trees

We have received shipment of a wonderful, almost unknown tree - Prunus mume, the Japanese flowering apricot.

At 20 feet, it is an ideal size for small gardens or fine accent for larger landscapes. In late spring and through summer, handsome dark, green foliage, dramatically covered, dark green stems and a pleasant rounded canopy distinguish the apricot tree. But it is during the dark days of winter that this tree displays it 's unique charm. Starting in early January depending on the site and the weather , the flowering apricot produces beautiful, delicate, fragrant flowers over many weeks just when you need them the most. The double pink blossoms have a spicy fragrance and is just a joy to visit in the garden when there is nothing else yet blooming.
