Apricot tree named ‘Suapriten’

A new and distinct apricot, Prunus armeniaca cv. ‘Suapriten’ that ripens early in the season and produces heavy, consistent crops in early districts of the California San Joaquin Valley. Harvest begins about five days after the apricot variety ‘Poppy’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,593) harvest begins. The fruit is large (averaging approximately 61 mm), firm and develops a bright golden-orange color with red blush on exposed fruit. The flavor has been judged to be superior to other early-season apricots with approximately 15° brix that is well balanced by a slightly tart skin, a slight aroma, and plentiful juice.
