Description

Full sun, Zone 3

Prunus mandshurica x ‘DurGarfield’

Pot size: #5, #7

Free-stone yellow fruit with a red blush, ripens in mid-summer. Good for canning/jams. Casino has the largest and “meatiest’ fruit of any of our apricots, making it the closest to BC varieties. Needs to be planted in a sheltered location. Does better in urban rather than rural areas.

Manchurian/Siberian apricot group. Prefers a moist, well-drained soil.

Casino requires a second apricot of a different variety for cross pollination.
