A Pluot is a plum-apricot cross that leans towards the plum. The different varities vary in fruit skin color, from yellow to red, making this a beautiful combination tree. The fruit is of excellent quality, incredibly sweet, plum-like, with an apricot aftertaste. Ripens in July. Three of the four varities, Flavor King, Flavor Queen, Flavor Supreme and Dapple Dandy, are included. Your tree will be tagged with the three varieties. There is no way of preselecting. The tree is self-fertile and will pollinize early ripening Japanese plums. They need only 600 hours of chilling and thrive in areas where hot summers bring out their incredible sweetness and complex flavor.
