COMPREHENSIVE review of the Che tree. This fruit tree is the BEST uncommon fruit tree. It originates from China and was introduced to America 100 years ago! Che fruit is soft and tastes like cantaloup-watermelon! The tree has beautiful leaves, is drought-tolerant, and grows to a modest size.
The Che tree is also called the Cudrang, Chinese Melonberry, Chinese Mulberry, Mandarin Melonberry, Silkworm Thorn, and Storehousebush.
Also, its species name has changed from Cudrania tricuspidata to Maclura tricuspidata.

About HEPPY™
in 2017 I started planting on a 2 acre abandoned property. We’re located only 10 miles south of the US Capitol but are surrounded by several hundred acres of forest and few homes. Our urban garden design, landscape architecture and permaculture techniques incorporate fruiting trees, fruiting shrubs, edible ground cover, edible flowers, and herbs and medicinal plants that will provide food for generations. It’s a long and slow ‘haul’ as we adapt, learn new things, and are (usually ;) enjoying the process.
HEPPY™ and HEPPY Lifestyle™ is about Quality of Life (QOL). It’s a lifestyle YOU deserve, and YOU can do.
QOL is permaculture to grow and eat nutritious food. QOL is physical exercise and physical health. It’s mental health to include rest, meditation, enjoyment of nature, and working at what makes you passionate. It’s about being creative, artistic and INVENTIVE. And, HEPPY emphasizes financial health by creating passive income, being self-sustaining and finding best value! It’s a lifestyle that will work for YOU!
