This is going to be a challenge, since we don't all have the same growing conditions, based mostly on geography. But it occurred to me that there is a lot of "passion to grow things" happening on this site. So, if you all can control your own self-indulgences, what would be, say your top five, "gotta have'em's" in your yard, garden, home, etc.? Remember....we can't all grow or appreciate some of the more zone specific possibilities!
Bananas being #1 of course!
