Lots of new weird sprouts coming up:

Pepino aka Melon Pear - Solanum muricatum
Vine Peach Melon - Cucumis melo "chito"
Ivy Gourd - Coccinia grandis
Black Sugar Cane - Saccharum officinarum......from what I've read sugar cane is supposed to be zone 8 so we'll see if I can get it to survive here. And expect for the vine peach, all the others should be able to be kept as houseplants during the winters
