aka Tree Tomato

This sub-tropical fruit is closely related to the ordinary tomato and therefore needs to be grown in a frost-free position. Tamarillos also like shelter from wind, good drainage and a fairly light soil. Produces medium sized orange/red fruit with a sweet, less acidic flavour. Semi-evergreen.

Your Tamarillo will appreciate a nice layer of mulch around the drip line - take care not to place against the trunk. Tamarillo's are not particularly long-lived so probably best to replace your tree every 3-4 years.
