It is also known as the Tamarillo Tree and belongs to the Solanaceae family. The tree produces deep red fruits with a tangy, slightly tart flesh and a rich, fruity flavor. It grows vigorously to 6–10 feet tall, with a bushy habit, and can bear fruit in as little as 1–2 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFruits are oval with smooth red skin; flesh is tangy and slightly tart. The fruit is commonly used in sauces, chutneys, and jams, or eaten fresh with a sprinkle of sugar to balance its tartness. Like the orange variety, the skin is typically peeled before eating due to its somewhat bitter taste. Leaves are large and heart-shaped, green and aromatic, with a musky scent when bruised. The plant adds tropical visual appeal to gardens and patios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e📋 Product summary:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCommon names: Red Tree Tomato, Tamarillo Tree\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBotanical name: Cyphomandra betacea\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFamily: Solanaceae\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOrigin: South America (Peru, Ecuador)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFruit: oval with smooth red skin; tangy, slightly tart flesh\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUses: sauces, chutneys, jams; eaten fresh with sugar\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSkin note: skin typically peeled before eating due to slight bitterness\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLeaves: large heart-shaped green leaves; aromatic foliage with musky scent when bruised\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGrowth: vigorous grower; 6–10 feet tall; bushy habit; can bear fruit in 1–2 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sow Exotic","offers":[{"title":"Medium Coconut Coir Pot","offer_id":45741449117892,"sku":"TRT-R-M","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0621\/5971\/6548\/files\/Tree-Tomato-Red-Cyphomandra-betaceae-Tampa-Home-Garden-Store-37402153615556.png?v=1784395836","url":"https:\/\/shop.soil911.com\/products\/tree-tomato-red-cyphomandra-betaceae","provider":"Tampa Home \u0026 Garden Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
