Solanum muricatum var Rio Bamba

We mislabeled a few different flats, so all the mislabeled varieties are discounted as mix-up.  They are big and healthy but variety is not 100% confirmed so we are selling them on a heavy discount.

Pepino Dulce is a somewhat hardy tomato relative. The name pepino dulce means sweet cucumber in english and the flavor of the fruit is somewhat like a sweet melon when ripe. The plant is prized for its medium sized fruit and sprawling nature to be used as edible ground cover in a food forest. Pepino Dulce is easy to root by cuttings and orginates from the Andes and so it can handle cooler temperatures and is hardy down to 28 degrees. 9-11 is a safer bet as a freeze can knock it back and/or kill it.
