Planting & Care

Plant your dormant Tibetan Apricot in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root system and set the tree at the same depth it grew in the nursery. Backfill with soil, water thoroughly, and apply a layer of mulch around the base, keeping it away from the trunk. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a strong root system.

Prune in late winter to maintain shape and remove dead or crossing branches. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced fruit tree fertilizer. With proper care, your tree will reward you with delicious homegrown apricots.
