Questions We Get

What does zone 2 mean on your scale?

On our MFTC scale, zone 2 means the coldest night you should plan for (the 1-in-30-year low) falls between -50°F and -40°F. Zone 2a runs -50°F to -45°F and zone 2b runs -45°F to -40°F. That is colder than a USDA zone 2, which is built on the average yearly low, so run your address through our cold hardiness calculator instead of going off a USDA map.

Do I need two apricot trees?

Not for Debbie's Gold, Morden 604 and Westcot, which are self-fertile. The others do better with a partner.
