It's time for our favorite day and another Easy stroll through Top Tropicals' Garden with savings of 50% and MORE! What a wonderful way to start the day.
Speaking of wonderful, is there any memory as wonderful as a peanut
butter and jelly sandwich from back in the day?! PB&J's, a true Classic, easy,
savory and delicious and a universal favorite... And for a truly Top Tropicals
variation of the Classic sandwich, have we got something special for
you...
Bunchosia argentea and Randia Formosa. OK, we admit it may not roll off the
tongue quite as easily as PB&J, but your tongue and taste buds will be
thankful for the delicious flavors of the Peanut Butter Fruit Tree - Bunchosia argentea, and Blackberry Jam Fruit - Randia formosa.
Combine the rich and creamy delicious Peanut Butter with the not too sweet and fresh pulp of the Blackberry Jam Fruit and you have a unique and tasty combination destined to be a classic of its own while making your garden look even more beautiful!
For this Easy Sunday we have priced these at incredible savings:
The Peanut Butter Tree, regularly $49, is on Easy Sunday sale for
only $24
The Blackberry Jam, regularly $39, is on Easy Sunday Sale for
only $19
Combine the two for your own Classic Combination and save even more, instead of full price $88, it's only only $39 for the set!
Randia formosa - Blackberry jam fruit, Jasmin de Rosa - fragrant white flowers of this Gardenia relative and edible fruit that tastes like blackberry jam... Kids love the fruit! Many claim that it's even better than preserves. This exotic shrub will fruit in a container within a year and produces as many as 25 to 30 fruits at a time. It is relatively cold hardy, blooms for a few months in the fall and winter, so fruiting and flowering can be enjoyed when many other plants are dormant.

Bunchosia argentea - Peanut Butter Tree.
One of the most fascinating exotic fruit, as amazing as Miracle fruit,
Peanut Butter Fruit is loved by both kids and adults. Yes, it tastes exactly like
peanut butter! Sweet, soft pulp with peanut flavor. The tree is small in
size, grows 10-15 ft max, or can be kept as a bush. Starts fruiting within 2-3
years from seed! Keep it in a pot if you have limited space, it can be grown
indoors, too. The fruit can be eaten fresh or made into milk shakes. Very rare
in cultivation, and relatively cold hardy.

Remember, the special prices are good for only 24
hours and expire Monday morning at 7 am EST.
Limited to availability, while supply lasts, hurry up!
Enjoy!

Photo above: Xanthosoma albo-marginata - Mickey Mouse Taro - one of most unusual plants in cultivation, a show stopper! This plant is thought to be a mutation of a species or even a possible hybrid. The leaves are never identical most are streaked with large blotches of white on dark blue green leaves. Leaves will develop a small cup like pocket at the leaf tip, and grow horizontally. It is always a conversation piece in the garden.
