At the Horticultural Experiment Station, Vineland Station 58 varieties of apricots have been tested since the station was established in 1906. At the present time 33 varieties are under test. Most of these varieties have come from the west coast and are not suited to Ontario conditions. There are several reasons why they have not been successful. Apricots bloom early in the spring and often encounter cool wet weather in our district. Many of the present varieties are very subject to blossom and twig blight and the fruit is susceptible to brown rot. Plum curculio was also a problem until some of the newer insecticides became available.
