This is a hardy Apricot tree from Gurneys. Mine is four years old and doing great. I am hoping it will produce this year and just wondering if anyone has experience with one? I also planted a Carmine Jewel Cherry and would like to know how they compare to a full size cherry? Thanks, Tyler

As I understand it, Carmine Jewel is a bush/dwarf cherry developed at the U of Saskatchewan(?) in Canada. I don't grow it, too expensive yet. Known for winter/cold hardiness, it is supposed to be one of the better ones they have developed that will do well in those areas that have very cold winters.

The following link has some more information:

I hope to grow this one sometime down the road.
