Eight year old dwarf apricot trees 6ft tall and loaded with fruit

Would you please direct me to information on creating those arcs?

That’s old schedule 40 PVC left over from my fig business days. Pound a 3ft piece of rebar into the ground as an anchor. Then bend the PVC to fit. I’ll take it down as soon as the apricot harvest is done. Save it for another need or next year.

These cots don’t waste time. Too bad I’m going to miss most while traveling to Colorado.

No more Fig selling?

I retired from that 18 months ago. Sold two plants this year. Back to hobby growing.

Success…!! Picked the remainder of apricots today. Lost a few to ants but not a single fruit damaged or lost to birds, coons, or any other critter.

They may all be Orangered.

I said it many times that apricots need to be tree-ripened aka home grown to taste like real apricots. I bought them from various stores over the years. They ranged from spit-out to barely acceptable.
