Default Pepino in the GH
Is anyone else growing these? I purchased this as a seedling two summers ago as a summer pot plant, it's about 50x the size it was, never out of flower, and is now beginning to set fruit. Hopefully I'll have a treat for my birthday next month.

Great find Adam. Let us know how it turns out. Is this a type of pepper?

It's in the Solanum family, it's supposed to be similar to a tamarillo, but better tasting (this clone is supposedly noted for its good taste)
