Toma Verde TOMATILLO is adapted to grow successfully in a wide range of climates, and is a large-fruited, 3' - 6' tall variety. These papery-husked wonders prefer growing conditions somewhat similar to tomatoes (and are related to a tomato), 
but will handle a lot more heat than tomatoes. Grows quickly and produces in both southern and northern climates. Used in a wide variety of Mexican foods.
