Our tomatillos produced until November in Northern CA, so I would guess that you'll see them in the farmer's markets for awhile yet. <BR/><BR/>And yeah, I am thinking <A HREF="http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/proceedings1990/v1-407.html" REL="nofollow">based on what I read</A>, that you need at least 2 tomatillo plants for pollination.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6567570657415441093.post-33321844073578077342008-09-16T22:21:00.000-07:002008-09-16T22:21:00.000-07:00jennifer of the veg*n goodies - As much as you lov...jennifer of the veg*n goodies - As much as you love peppers you'll love tomatillos because they are the perfect pairing. Hopefully you'll have better luck growing them then I did though. <BR/><BR/>audrey - Hacking away the branches is not a term I've had the good fortune of using for the pots on my deck. Good for you. <BR/><BR/>lucy - Which makes me wonder if there are Mexican resaturants in Australia. That's where I first had salsa verde with tomatillos. <BR/><BR/>I'll be interested to know if your plants produce fruit. There's something unusual about the plants in that they don't self pollinate but need multiple plants to cross with. Something like that. Melinda at Green Generation and Kendra at A Sonoma Garden, both in my sidebar, wrote more specifically about growing them. The plants I have are blooming like crazy but not a single fruit to be found. But I love a good flower.Kale for Salehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02467378353738682141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6567570657415441093.post-74870460186817065772008-09-16T15:56:00.000-07:002008-09-16T15:56:00.000-07:00Do you know, I've never eaten one?

We had two plants in our (cooler climate) community garden this year and they grew amazingly well. I was hacking back the branches all summer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6567570657415441093.post-56423410189935669872008-09-16T06:27:00.000-07:002008-09-16T06:27:00.000-07:00I love tomatillos, and they make fantastic salsa. ...I love tomatillos, and they make fantastic salsa. Sadly, nobody at the farmer's market seems to sell them even though they could easily be grown here.<BR/><BR/>I started some tomatillo seeds to attempt in our indoor winter garden, but I don't hold out much hope there. But you can bet your buns that I will be planting some in the community garden next year.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01760009169211682230noreply@blogger.com
