Click to Harvest!

Farmville developer Zynga added a handful of Cinco de Mayo items as part of tonight’s update. They fit right in with the Southwest items that have been available for a few days now. The only real way to know which items belong to which set is to pay attention to the icon next to an item in the Farmville marketplace. The Cinco de Mayo items are denoted by a sombrero.

Only two Cinco de Mayo decorations were released – a Pinata and a Prickly Pear cactus. Curiously, the Pinata is set to expire in 7 days, but the cactus is available for 28 more days. Perhaps the cactus was intended to be part of the Southwest item set?

Tomatillo seeds were also added. Tomatillos cost just 20 coins to plant, grow to maturity in 10 hours, and earn 120 coins and 1 XP when harvested. Tomatillos ARE eligible for crop mastery, unlike most other limited edition crops. So all you Farmville addicts out there attempting to master every crop better switch your fields to Tomatillos ASAP. Right now no expiration date is listed, but it is a reasonable guess that the crop will be retired in around 7 days, at the same time the pinata is removed.
