A peacotum is a peach/apricot/plum hybrid, said to taste similar to fruit punch, trademarked by Zaiger's Genetics, a company that develops novel fruit through deliberate hybridization. An application to trademark the name nectacotum in the USA for varieties derived from nectarine-type peaches was made in 2003 but later abandoned.[1]
