Collection Notes

OCH-14645.  Solanum lycopersicoides Dun.  Collected above Putre, alt. 3450 m., Prov. Tarapaca, Chle.  Isolated plants, from 1/2 - 1 meter or more in height.  Very bushy and branched.  Full of flowers and fruits.  For sure, atypical from the Palca (Peru) or Aricota (Peru) and will be considered a new form or maybe a new variety.  The most interesting feature is that this collection is highly resistant to cold and therefore, must have a great hardiness.  Putre is a cold place and is located in the bottom of a valley formed by the Putre volcano, which has great glaciers.
