Wow that's an awesome post in almost a willy wonka and chocolate factory like feeling :) so many plants I had no idea about in once post. Melon pears, cucamelons, Yacon And Crosne... Never heard of any of these. I was happy with my seedling cherry tomatoe plant sprouting 1 red tomato last week :) but now want to plant more less mainstream fruit plants etc :D

I fell in love with unusual fruits and veggies last year. There are so many things they don't sell in stores here in Belgium, while for example Yacon and Crosne can really thrive here.
There are so many things that are unknown to most people, but are so delicious.
Of course, if you experiment with lesser known things, it's always a bit of a gamble. Last year I had planted Kiwano, and although they look awesome, the taste of the fruit was not spectacular. On top of that it was such a mean plant: the vines, the leaves,... everything was covered with thousands of thorns you could barely see. Very painful experience, so I decided not to replant it this year. Which gave me some space to try a couple of new things :0)

Ah like the good old prickly pear, that looks like they where despiked.... But they never are because of the micro thorns 😮 had to Google a kiwano, the thorny melon :D looks great visually for sure.
