Pluot 'Dapple Dandy'
Pluots are hybrids of apricots and plums, but they are more plum-like, with smooth skin and a complex plum flavor. 'Dapple Dandy' Pluot has unique greenish-yellow skin with mottled red spots inspiring the name "Dinosaur Egg" in fresh fruit markets. The creamy pink flesh is freestone and has a sweet, slightly spicy, low-acid flavor. Fruit ripens in late July to August. Requires 400 chill hours to set fruit. Needs a pollinizer such as Santa Rosa Plum.
Prefers to be planted in full sun in well-draining soil. Water regularly during the first year to aid the plant in establishing a strong root system, frequency should be cut back once established. Fertilize before the flowers emerge and remove dead wood and prune to maintain the desired size. In Spring, thin out the crop to prevent early fruit drop and overbearing.
