Dapple Dandy Pluot®

A hybrid stone fruit that’s 75% plum and 25% apricot, pluots have the smooth skin and succulent juiciness of a plum with the firm texture and sweetness of an apricot. Dapple Dandy is a standout taste-test winner among pluot varieties, with creamy white and red flesh and a sweet flavor that has none of the tartness typical of standard plums. The small, attractive fruits have greenish-yellow skin with red spots that mature to a maroon and yellow dapple as harvest approaches. This adaptable tree can be grown in a range of climates; just requires 400–500 chill hours. Requires a pollinator like Flavor King Pluot®. Why buy a Deluxe package: Deluxe fruit trees include 2 oz. of Fruit-Boost™ Pelletized Calcium to enhance fruit quality, a 12 oz. bag of Fruit Tree Food Starter Formula, easy-to-use tree ties (see video below), and a premium tree guard to protect the trunk from gnawing pests, mowers and weed trimmers.
