Prunus armeniaca Blenheim
Prunus armeniaca 'Blenheim', known as the 'Blenheim' apricot, is a heritage fruit variety recognized for its productivity and the exceptional quality of its fruit. Its deciduous green foliage, abundant white spring blossoms, and golden to reddish-orange, juicy, fragrant fruits make it both an ornamental and a productive tree for well-exposed Quebec gardens. The 'Blenheim' apricot produces sweet fruit with melting flesh, perfect for fresh consumption, jams, or drying. It prefers well-drained, fertile soil and a full-sun location, while being relatively easy to cultivate. Thanks to its rounded shape, decorative blossoms, and generous harvests, it fits perfectly into family orchards and residential fruit gardens, combining edible utility and visual appeal.
