Although it looks much like a medium-sized tomato the tree tomato is not a true tomato. Tasting somewhat like a tomato, it is usually eaten with sugar or boiled to make a popular and refreshing drink.
Unlike ordinary tomatoes you can use the fruit not only like tomato but like plums in jam making, desserts and pies. An extremely fast growing shrub.
Native to South America.
Prefers a rich well-drain soil in a protected sunny position, drought and frost tender.
