Prunus mandshurica, also called Manchurian apricot and scout apricot,[citation needed] is a tree in the genus Prunus.

It was first described by Karl Maximovich in 1883 as a variety of the Siberian apricot (Tibetan apricot) Prunus armeniaca.[3] It is resistant to cold and is native to northeast China, Korea, and Manchuria. It is highly susceptible to plum pox potyvirus.[4]
