A couple of decades ago I ordered Siberian "C" peach trees and also a Montclair peach. The Montclair has the habit of being a double trunk tree and does not usually live long (mine did not either). Apricots can be grafted to peach, but not peach to apricot rootstocks. These were ordered from Bear Creek Nursery in Washington, which is no longer in business. Siberian peaches did very well in zone 4a. We were able to order Siberian C from the conservation nursery in North Dakota up until this spring.

Hi all, and especially Bob Purvis and apricot folks, I encountered the
site plantcares.com, which has a link on its left side of the page for
"plant database". When I clicked that and then to apricots, I encountered
all sorts of wonderful sounding varieties, not to mention a rootstock mont
clare or mount claire ? that I had not heard of. When I googled the
apricot varieties, all I found were UK sites selling them. However, I have
emailed the customer service at plantcares.com, and he said they were grown
by 2 different US nurseries that they get the trees from. I can't find any
info on this company...do any of you know about them? They show an address
in Louisville KY. Here is the link to the scrumptious sounding apricot
page:

Thanks for any info anybody has about them!
Patsy
