Be prepaire for some amazing and strange hybrids of fruits!
1. PLUMCOT
This as you may have guesses, is a cross between a Plum and an Apricot.
Like most on this list, this fruit is a cross-pollination from two plants from the same species or genus. It takes years of selective breeding to produce a hybrid fruit.
The Plumcot for example, took a Biologist over 20 years of research and experimentation!

2. CANDYFLOSS flavored GRAPES
Yep, Grapes have been crossed with Candyfloss of all things. These very sweet Grapes were created in California using absolutely no chemicals. And the seeds for this Grape plant come from a test tube. Get ready for the rise of the novelty flavoured Grape, because flavours like Mango, Strawberry, Gummybear and Skittles flavoured Grapes will soon be on supermarket shelves.

3. TAYBERRY
A Tayberry is a cross between a Raspberry and a Blackberry. This hybrid fruit was patented in 1979 and its named after the River Tay in Scotland. A Tayberry looks like a Raspberry but it is more elongated and it tastes like a juicier and sweeter verison of the normal Raspberry.

4. BLOOD LIMES
The name of this one isnt as much of a give away as to what the hybrid is compared to the rest. Blood Limes are a Hybrid Citrus fruit, developed in a project to invastigate salt-resistant crops. These are a cross between a Red finger Lime and an Ellendale Mandarin, which is a hybrid in itself. So the Blood Lime is actually a Hybrid od a Hybrid.
5. TANGELO
The Tangelo is a Tangerine with a Pomelo or sometimes with a Grapefruit. Tangelos are larger than Tangerines and they dont have the bitterness of a Grapefruit. Sometimes referred to as Honeybells. They generally have lose skin and they are easier to peel than Oranges.
6. PINEBERRY
This one is a Strawberry mixed with a special type od Strawberry. And when I say special I mean its a Strawberry called the Beach Strawberry which can only be found in Hawaii and off this pacific coasts of north and south America. This white berry has red seeds and it tastes strangely of Pineapple.
7. LIMEQUAT
This is a hybrid cross between a lime and a Kumquat. its actually really small compared to a Lime and its only around the size of an Olive. This was crossed to create a citrus fruit that didnt have a harsh acidic taste, but instead has a soft sweet tang.

8. JOSTABERRY
A Jostaberry is a cross between a Blackcuraant and two different types of Gooseberry. It looks like a Gooseberry but it has no thorns. Its sweeter and combines the vigorous growth and rich flavour of a Blackcurrant.

Peacotum is a peach, apricot and plum hybrid. This fruit feels like a peach but tastes like a fruit punch. Its trademarked by a company called Zaiger Genetics. Which is an organisation which develops crazy fruits through deliberate hybridization.

10. BUBBLEBERRIES
This fruit is a cross between a Strawberry and Bubblegum and I actually really want to try one of these. They grow in remote forests in central Europe and Bubbleberries were eaten in the 19th century but they kind of faded out.
