Apricots are known for their upright growth or spreading habit. It is a deciduous tree that is found in small and medium sizes. When these trees are cultivated, they reach their maximum height of approximately 4 meters. But when they grow in natural conditions, their height can reach up to 15 meters. They are classified as grey, brown, and reddish bark, having reddish leaves with young twigs.
There are a lot of misconceptions and disputes on the origin of the apricot. During ancient times, the apricot has been cultivated in Armenia. It has been grown there for so long that people started to think that they originated from there. The seeds of the apricot had been found in a Chalcolithic-era site by the archaeological excavation at Garni in Armenia. That’s why it has the scientific name Prunus armeniaca (Armenian plum), which is derived from that assumption described previously. Nowadays, in Armenia, around 50 varieties of apricot are growing.
In the 1600s BC, settlers brought this orange-coloured fruit to the English colonies. In today’s world, the USA is one of the most significant importers of apricot. A big number of apricots are cultivated in California and some parts of Washington. The apricots we are offering originate from Turkey.
Because of their amazing texture, moistness, sweetness, and tart flavour, dried apricots are very popular among people. It can be enjoyed as a snack, just like the people do in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. You can add them in Wholesome Oats or Greek yoghurt for a wonderful taste.
