| I bought three pounds of black velvet apricots (plumcots---50% plum, 50% apricots) from Costco. ...Has anyone tried them? I been buying them since 2008; and they are delicious. Black skin gives way to a candy like-sweetness flesh; They are fuzzy like an apricot but round as an angeleno plum. Patented as "sweetcot". |

| I got 3 seedlings about a foot tall. I will graft it to an adult plum tree to accelerate fruiting. Don't know if it even comes close to its parent. Just having fun or I can use it as a rootstock down the road.LOL. BTW, I do like the sweetness of it and so juicy. Tony |

| Flavor? Apricot or plum? I've seen them at Sam's Club in the past, but never bought any... |

| They are more plum flavor than apricot. Very juicy and sweet. Frank, buy some next time you are at Sam's and try them out. I think you will like them. Tony |
