I haven't tried Harcot, either.  I have a Manchurian Apricot(MA) which has
never done much, nevermind blooming).  I considered driving to Grimo Nut
(I'm 20 mins from the Canadian border) but they have stopped offering the
alpricot altogether (I was going to buy one and cross with it myself as they
wouldn't ship them).  Now, I was considering replacing the MA with a sweet
pit apricot, but didn't want to do so before getting recommendations from
other growers first.

Sorry Steve Herje,

I thought the Steve you were referring too was the Steve from S & E Hills
but now I know it was Steve Wilson and that Steve from S & E is really Scott
Hills.  Sorry.
