Do tamarillo ripen off the plant ??

[Plantinyum]

As above, i have those fruit, which i harvested from my plants that i brought inside the basement for overwintering. I doubted that they would ripen on the plants in the dark cold basement ,so harvested them and placed them in a paper bag along with a few apples. Most of them have a tiny bit of colour at the bottoms, some of them have a bit more colour than others,yet some do not have any. I would assume all of them look like the cut up one on inside. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />

Hi! I think those are too small and green, but if they are totaly formed they will get red inside home.

thanks, i think they got to their full size, the biggest ones are arround the size of large chicken egg. I hope that the colloring inside  arround the seeds does mean they were very close to ripening, hope at least half of them to ripen....
