Current Facts
The Flavora plum is actually a hybrid of a plum and an apricot known as a pluot or plumcot. It is a registered trademark name given to a stonefruit that was developed by Floyd Zaiger of Zaiger Genetics in 1989, when he first bred a plum with an apricot. There are dozens of pluot cultivars including Dapple, Hand grenade, Flavor Fall, the Dinosaur Egg and the supreme variety, Flavor King. These Flavora plums are grown by Murray Family Farms in Bakersfield, CA.
