plumcot
Stone fruit cross
A plumcot is a hybrid fruit crossing a plum and an apricot, with roughly equal parentage from each.
The flesh combines characteristics of both—sweeter than most plums, with apricot's floral notes.
Related hybrids include pluots (more plum) and apriums (more apricot): The plumcots at the farmers market were perfectly ripe.
