Some characteristics of two Japanese Apricot varieties, Ping Ting and Jen Toa, were studied. The study showed that Ping Ting variety had shorter leaves, wider and longer petals than Jen Toa variety. But there was no difference in the number of petals and sepals, lenght of pistils, number of anthers and percentage of pollen viability. With regard to the fruits, the Ping Ting variety had bigger size, heavier and more thick than the Jen Toa variety. Seed sizes were not different. The characters which were shown to be different between the two varieties were total percentage of the soluble solid and percentage of the total acidity which were higher in the Jen Toa variety.
