At least anywhere you can grow tomatoes. Possibly even where tomatoes WON'T
grow. And yes, it's confusing having them named the same as a perennial
fruit. Luther Burbank named "his" type "Wonderberries". Though as Dr.
Heiser found, what he really had was not a new variety of his creation, but
a species from S. Africa, which is eaten by natives there.
