What you're looking for are Apriums.  They are supposed to be more plum like 
in growing characteristics, the size of plums but more apricot in taste but 
still sweeter than apricots.

We are going to buy at least one of the Dapple Dandy pluots and aren't sure 
what the second tree will be.  We've tried about 3 different ones so far and 
the Dapple Dandy (aka Dinosaur Eggs) are delicious!
