‘Candy Stripe’ Pluot® Interspecific Plum

Prunus salicina x 'Candy Stripe' PP17828

This new and distinct variety is ever-sweetening. It offers a delicious tart flavor when picked just prior to harvest dates, and sweetens dramatically during its 3-week mid-season harvest window. It bears firm and juicy medium, pink-yellow striped fruit, known for its excellent flavor. A pollenizer (such as Flavorfall) is required, as is 800 chill hours.
