The "pluot" is a plum/apricot cross.

"A pluot is a tradename for varieties of interspecific plum or Plumcot developed in the late 20th century by Floyd Zaiger. In the USA the fruit is known by most regulatory agencies as an interspecific plum or Plumcot. It is a complex cross hybrid of plum and apricot, exhibiting more plum-like traits. The pluot, like the aprium, is derived from plums, apricots and or hybrids called the plumcot. Pluots are noted for their sweetness, their intense flavour and very juicy pulp."
