Harcot

A tier

Harcot is a Canadian-bred apricot aimed at cold-winter regions—medium orange fruit, freestone flesh, and flavour that can be excellent in a good heat year for such northerly genetics. Trees show improved hardiness over many Mediterranean types, though apricot flower frost remains a universal risk. Fruit is attractive for short-season local markets. Chosen by prairie-edge and northern gardeners who want real apricots rather than only plums. Eat fresh when ripe; process surplus quickly. Not a California shipping clone—volume is local and seasonal.
