APPEARANCE Rating: 
Small, brownish green and yellow skin, flesh is dark yellow with hints of a nice brown
AROMA Rating:
Barely any aroma – neither good nor bad
TEXTURE Rating:
Juicy, slightly crunchy, might even call it “al dente”
TASTE Rating:
Perfect sweetness that reminds me of something….but I can’t remember. The flavor doesn’t linger for long so I am required to keep eating it.
OVERALL Overall Rating:
This is a tasty pluot with ideal texture and sweetness like really ripe melon, fruit loops, and candy in all the best ways without being cloyingly sweet.

NOTES
Pluots are a hybrid between plums and apricots with the majority being plum (often a ratio of 75%/25%). Technically speaking, “pluot” is a registered trademark of Zaiger’s Genetics.
What is the difference between pluots and plumcots?
Growing Flavor Grenades
So delicious, however….don’t eat more than one. The “grenade” refers to more than the flavor!
Oh my Violet. That sounds awful. I definitely haven’t had that problem!
