Prunus Armeniaca ‘Moorpark’ Dwarf (Moorpark Apricot Dwarf) is a popular variety known for its large, golden-orange fruit with a rich, sweet flavour. The flesh is juicy and aromatic, making it perfect for fresh eating, jams, drying, and baking. Moorpark is a heritage favourite for its taste and reliable performance.
The dwarf form offers all the benefits of a full-size tree in a compact size, ideal for smaller gardens, orchards, or pots. It thrives in full sun with well-drained soil and produces heavy crops when given regular care. Prune after harvest to maintain shape and encourage healthy fruiting in future seasons.
