I have an Early Blush apricot and am looking for a second variety - I live in 
zone 6b/7a New Jersey.   It looks like Jerseycot will be a late-bloomer, but 
disease prone.
I was considering Tomcot; but maybe Montrose will be a better idea.  One 
thing about Montrose (which I do not know to be true of Early Blush or 
Tomcot) is that it has a sweet-pit; that gives it a big advantage, if I can 
use it as an almond substitute.
Thank you,
Steve; NJ
