Temperate Fruit Discussion / Stumbled across a 4in1 Pluot
« on: April 08, 2020, 03:10:34 PM »
I couldn't resist my local nursery had a 6 foot really nice 4 in 1 pluot tree with a 2 inch trunk. It has Splash, Emerald Drop, Geo Pride and Flavor Grenade. The fruit begins in early July and extends with Flavor Grenade through October and it can hold fruit on the tree for an additional 4 weeks.
