That’s so cool. I’ve never heard of them but they had some at the supermarket and I tried. Delicious.

Good question Cyndi! It must be 30 or more years since I tried one. Not a strong flavour by any means, but sweet. I only got this last year & these are its first crop @cyndi

This has surprised me, as it's only a titchy plant, a foot or so high! Maybe next year Sharon as it probably flowers & fruits on the previous year's growth @sharonhayden
