The tamarillo is native to the Andes of Ecuador, Peru, Chile and Argentina. Today it is still cultivated in gardens and small orchards for local production, and it is one of the most popular fruits in these regions.

The flesh has a firm texture and contains more and larger seeds than a common tomato. The fruits are very high in vitamins and iron and low in calories. The tree grows very quickly and is able to bear fruit after 1 and a half to 2 years. A single mature tree can produce more than 45 pounds of fruit per year.
