‘Tomcot™’ is valued for reliable production, attractive orange-red fruit, and excellent apricot flavor. Harvest occurs early, often late spring. Fruit is firm, sweet-tart, and well suited to fresh eating and baking.

On Citation rootstock, trees remain semi-dwarf and productive, fitting well into smaller home gardens. ‘Tomcot™’ has relatively low chill requirements and blooms later than many apricots, helping reduce frost risk in vulnerable microclimates.

Trees benefit from good air circulation, regular pruning, and consistent watering during fruit development. A strong choice for gardeners seeking dependable apricot harvests in mild-winter climates.
