Hi Hedwig - mine took about four weeks to come up..... just about ready to pot them on now. If you're anywhere near the Sunshine Coast soon, PM or email me and I'll keep one for you
I tried Tamarillo once, and none of them came up. My friend said I had planted them too deep; she said to just press them into the surface of the soil, as light helps them germinate. And they don't like being too cold, either. Sue
don't buy a packet - buy a fruit and use the fresh seeds - then you know what the fruit you are growing will taste like
