Seeds from Cyphomandra betacea is a small tree or shrub in the Solanaceae family. Its native range is southern Tropical America. Familiar names include Tree Tomato, Tamarillo, blood fruit, chilto, and Tamamoro, to name a few. It grows in the hot tropical lowlands and higher elevations of Malaysia. It is eaten for breakfast with light sugar and chilled before eating. A strudel is made in New Zealand along with compotes, curries, chutneys, and even a hollandaise sauce. It can grow to around 10-15 feet tall unless pruned to size. The vast leaves smell just like popcorn. The pink and white flowers come in clusters, as do the fruits behind them. It can be grown in large containers. They do fine inside if you have the room. The fruits are 2-3 inches long with larger seeds than regular tomato seeds. It prefers to grow in full sun and likes to be protected from winds. It prefers well-drained soil with high water needs for big production. Zones 10-11
