Have you ever tasted a #pluot #fruit before?

Pluots /ˈpluːɒt/ are later generations of complex hybrid between the Japanese plum, Prunus salicina (providing the greater amount of parentage), and the apricot, Prunus armeniaca.[6][7] The fruit's exterior has smooth skin closely resembling that of a plum. Pluots were developed in the late 20th century by Floyd Zaiger.[8]

They're one of the 1st #FruitTrees to blossom in this area of the South Island. These are their #flowerbuds & early #blossoms 🤍
