These are seedlings our favorite huge apricot tree, planted roughly 50 yrs. ago by the Steele's at our farm. We call it 'Steele' not to stake claim on a new cultivar, but just to denote it's ancestry. The fruit is fantastic, for fresh eating or drying, and the tree is one of the biggest oldest apricots we've ever found. 10/10 would recommend.
Stone fruits like apricots, peaches, and plums often produce seedlings that can be reasonably close to the parent in terms of taste and quality. While they may not be exact replicas, they tend to retain many desirable characteristics.
