Absolutely! I planted the ‘Hayward’ type. I’ll quote some info:

‘Hayward’ fruit are fuzzy, brown and oblong in shape. The flesh is tart-sweet and tastes like a combination of citrus, melon, and strawberry. When fruit are cut crosswise the emerald-green flesh has a ring of small black edible seeds. This variety is primarily grown in California’s Central Valley in the United States. It is only winter hardy down to approximately 10 degrees F and consequently will not survive in the mid west.

Here’s the source for that and more…

I wonder if a tree would grow in our yard.

Did you plant the tree from scratch?
