The video shows our Dapple Fire variety of pluots being harvested at Frankwood Ranch.

A pluot is a hybrid fruit that is a cross between a plum and an apricot. It was created by Floyd Zaiger in the late 20th century through a process called hybridization. Pluots have a flavor that is a combination of both plums and apricots, with some varieties leaning more towards one parent fruit than the other.

Pluots have a smooth skin and a juicy flesh, similar to plums and they come in a variety of colors, including shades of red, purple, and yellow. The flesh can be either firm or soft, depending on the specific variety and they are typically sweet and have a pleasant aroma.

The exact taste and texture of a pluot can vary depending on the specific variety, as there are many different cultivars available. We are farming Dapple Fire pluots but other varieties include Dapple Dandy, Flavor Supreme, and Flavor King.
