In the late 1600s Lord Anson at Moor Park produced this crowning success before Thomas Jefferson ordered the trees to be planted at his home, Monticello. A longtime favorite, the Moorpark apricot is known for its rich flavor and aroma. Excellent for fresh eating, canning, and drying. Tree naturally stays smaller. Self fertile, can add a pollenizer for better production. -
