The Tree Tomato, also known as Tamarillo, is an unusual large shrub native to Peru. The trees grow ten to twelve feet in height and may be single or multiple stemmed depending on how they are trained. The large, rather oval leaves may be six to twelve inches long. Small, pinkish fragrant flowers appear in the spring and the fruits mature during the fall and following winter. Tamarillos resemble the tomato in appearance and taste somewhat sweeter. Like tomatoes, they can be eaten as a vegetable and used in sauces, soups or other ways. They can also be made into jams and jellies. Tree Tomatoes are easily grown from seed and make excellent indoor or conservatory plants. |

The now legendary “Mortgage Lifter” tomato was brought into being in the early 1940s by an auto mechanic named MC "Radiator Charlie" Byles. Charlie developed the tomato by cross-breeding four of the largest-fruited tomatoes he could find.

These are big, meaty tomatoes, which can weigh as much as 4 lbs. Very productive and fairly disease resistant – well worth a try. |

BIZARRE EXOTICA Australia's ancient grass tree is a remarkable, long-lived plant, but one seldom seen outside its native habitat. A dense tuft of narrow, arching, grassy leaves 3 ft long sprout from a trunk made up of a mass of old leaf bases held together by natural resin. It takes 30 years or more for the leaf tuft to rise high above the trunk.

Their natural habitat is an open scrub and dry heath environment. Culture in cool greenhouse. Zone 9+ |
No two are alike, but the Joshua Tree is distinctive and easily recognizable. Technically, it is not a tree but rather the largest of all Yuccas and a member of the Agave family. It thrives in the higher elevations of the Mohave Desert in the Southwestern U.S. and may reach a height of 30 feet or more (though not in our lifetime -- it is very slow-growing). Referring to the Joshua Tree, Barbara Wilson of salon.com writes: "It grows the way it does, tall and branched, like a Dr. Seuss drawing, multilimbed with tufts for hands, because of a weevil. It would like to grow straight, but the weevil irritates its very being, threatens its plant sanity. The Joshua tree, struggling to outrun the weevil, moves outward, building new plant cells that eventually form a new limb. It responds to pain and irritation by growing." May be grown in a container and makes quite a conversation piece. Likes full sun and needs very little water. Zone 7+ |
