On July 2019 I posted the photos of first flowers the hybrid of Hardy
Tamarillo Cyphomandra
corymbiflora
(female parent) and male Guava
Tamarillo C.
fragrans = C. diploconos (male
parent). Now the hybrid plants have young (immature yet) fruits. I am posting the photos of fruits and more photos of flowers. And on the and a few images of the parent plants.
Hardy Tamarillo’s (Cyphomandra corymbiflora x fragrans) photos:
 |
| Immature hybrid fruit |
 |
| The hybrid has saucer-shaped flowers (inetermediate to cup-shaped flowers of C. fragrans and star-shaped ones of C. corymbiflora). Young flowers are purple |
 |
| Older flowers become almost white |
 |
| The stem is characteristic maculated |
 |
| The down part of trunk is not very swollen (resembles C. corybiflora one) |
 |
| The lower leaves were lobed (similar to the ones of C. fragrans) |
 |
| The upper leaves are no lobed. This is deciduous plant (as C. corybliflora, but lose the laeves later) |
 |
| Young fruits (these fruits were created by hand pollination - backcrossing with C. corymbiflora) |
 |
| The hybrid immature fruit |
