Temperate Fruit Discussion / Re: Topworking apricot tree, looking for suggested cultivars to graft (SoCal)

Plums, pluots and prunes are your best bet as the apricot and plum are fairly closely related... In fact, pluots are hybrid crosses of plums and apricots ;D

It might be an idea to just get a new tree as apricots are not the greatest rootstocks, and the age of the understock may make it tricky for the graft to take, but I wish you all the best of luck.

Like most nuts they have long deep tap roots. :)

Greetings from Sunny South Africa! I found this great nursery website that contains information on growing a multitude of fruit tree cultivars and gives yields, rough harvest and flowering dates etc. It should be helpful to anyone in the Southern Hemisphere (I hope). Anyhow, hope you get some use out of it; https://www.jdvandeventerkwekery.com/fruit-tree-cultivars
