I've had Bonanzas do very well here, unfortunately, at this property there seems to be something that inclines the trees toward some sort of canker. The trees die limb by limb after they've been thriving for years. I expect the apricot tree to go in a couple of years. This area has a real problem with it. The nice thing about Bonanza is that it is dwarf and easier to net than others. I love the fruit but it doesn't keep once it's picked. The skin is delicate about bruising and the bruises show up just a few hours later. But YUMMY! Sweet and juicy and enough for me and the birds if they weren't such beaky little critturs.
