/. E. ILGENFRITZ' SONS. APRICOTS. ♦ The Apricot is one of the most delicious of our dessert fruits. It ripens between Cherries and Plums. The remarks on the Curculio, under the head of Plums, are appli- cable to the Apricot. The tree may be trained on walls, but a northern or western expo- sure is better. It is recommended to shorten in the limbs of the Apricot, as was remarked also of the Peach. EARLY GOLDEN.
