Use this small, fast-growing tree to brighten up any sunny area in your landscape. You'll often get nuts from a single tree, but if you add more than one, they'll help pollinate each other for larger crops.

They are so pretty in springtime! Masses of pink flowers liberally cover the branches. The display is on par with any other beloved ornamental flowering trees.

#ProPlantTips for Care

Since this variety is a peach and almond hybrid, it is highly recommended to boil almonds prior to consuming.

Plant this hardy tree in full sun with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight for best results. Morning sun is best, as it quickly dries the foliage.

Well-drained soil is also a must. Improve drainage by adding soil in a mound 12 to 18 inches tall by 3 feet wide. Plant in that mound.

Almonds need a moderate amount of water on a regular basis, especially during nut production. Apply a thick layer of mulch over the root system and spread to 3 feet outside the canopy. Allow 6 inches of clearance around the trunk for air circulation.

Remove crossing branches in the interior of the tree in late winter. The goal is to increase the sunlight and air circulation in the canopy.

Almonds ripen from the top of the tree down. Harvest by shaking the tree, or using a small stick to knock the branches. Rake litter away from the base of your tree and add the spent hulls to your compost pile.
