Peacotum - new fruit

Found a new fruit at the farmers’ market. It’s a hybrid of a peach, apricot, and plum….thus peacotum. I love it’s vibrant color. It has a taste different than all three fruits, I would say closest to a tart nectarine.

How interesting. You have captured the sheen on them nicely.

@wakelys Thank you. That is what really caught my eye about them, so I tried to capture that.

A lovely still! Interesting hybrid.

Interesting !! but do not like the tart taste description!! A lovely still life !

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Crazy sounding hybrid! I guess I'd rather have them separate, but I really like this display!

@beryl Do you like white peaches better than yellow? If so this is definitely not for you. I can’t stand white peaches so it works well for me.

I thought these were apples at first glance! Not heard of these.

So interesting.

Looks yummy, I'll have to keep an eye out for them, partial to nectarines.

Beautiful color and shiny!

What i want to know is would you buy them again? I thought they were apples at first.

[Shutterbug]

@randystreat We would buy them again. And right now there is a lot to choose from.

I am not fussed on "tart" fruit but your capture is superb.

[Wylie]

fascinating and a beautiful set up for the shot.

[Casablanca]
