Product information "Apricot Little Bobby"

While apricots that are imported from the south are getting bigger and larger, bringing pumped water in every sense to the north, the apricot variety Little Bobby remains small and concentrated aromatic.Fruits: Sweet fruits for children, small, beautifully orange-coloured apricot, very sweet and aromatic; large yields
Plant/growth: Broadly upright; for mild locations, watch out for temperature fluctuations during flowering
Fertilisation: Self-fertile
Harvest: Medium late, early August
How big are apricot trees?
Final size for bushes: Height: 2.5-3 m, crown diameter: 2-2.5 m
Final size for espaliers: Height: 2.5-3 m, width: from 2-3.5 m
The compact variety Apricompact remains even smaller (about 50-60 % of the size of a normal apricot) and it is especially suited for growing in pots or small gardens; it is also has very reliable yields. Kioto is definitely more compact than the other varieties.

I wish to buy an apricot tree, but all the bush varieties grow too tall. I understandcordons can now be grown as upright trees. Can you confirm this flr e please? I do not want the tree to grow much taller than six foot.
