1. Is the Nectarine a hybrid fruit?
Or is it naturally occurring? Because it's my favourite fruit. :)

2. Nectarine: a new world crop?
I think its not a hybrid.

http://www.thefruitpages.com/peaches.shtml
Strange enough, the nectarine is never mentioned in descriptions from the time Before Christ. Nectarines are first mentioned in America in 1720 when they grew between the peach trees in Virginia. A.J. Downing registred 19 nectarine races in America in 1857.
Today many types of nectarines are cultivated.

5. I thought it was a cross between a peach and a plum
but I guess I was wrong.

That'd get my vote. Are tangelos a hybrid?

11. No, hybrid.
He is propelled by two different means, both working in unison. Like a Prius!

6. I have never seen any of those fruits
in the grocery stores where I shop. I buy groceries at Kroger and SuperTarget and they don't carry them.
