It takes TWO to Tomatillo! Yes, it is true -- you need two tomatillo plants to produce fruit. Tomatillos are out-crossers and don't "self-pollinate" like tomatoes and peppers. They need insects to move the pollen from one plant to the other. If you have one plant, you will no doubt have lovely yellow flowers, but in the end, empty husks. 🙁 BTW, this fact is mentioned on the tomatillo description on my website, yet folks still purchase one plant. Remember it takes two to tomatillo!! (p.s. There will be a few tomatillo plants at our sale on Saturday for anyone who needs a second plant 😁) ... See MoreSee Less
