About InterSpecific Apricot

The label identifies an interspecific group without specifying an exact hybrid pedigree.

Nutrition Information

A pure-apricot reference does not establish composition for an interspecific Prunus hybrid. Matching verified nutrition is not established.

Storage & Handling

Commercial storage guidance for fresh apricots. Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Temperature

-0.5 to 0°C (31 to 32°F)

Humidity

90-95%

Packaging

Ventilated containers or cartons, to avoid ethylene buildup and maintain humidity

Storage Notes: Decay, mainly brown rot and rhizopus rot, is the greatest hazard in handling apricots, so cool them quickly and hold them as cold as possible. Produces significant ethylene: store apart from ethylene-sensitive produce. Highest freezing point: -1°C. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
