I like this plant as it not only provides fruit but also some much needed summer shade for the garden. Also it is 1 of my wife's favourite fruits so I gained some good Brownie points by planting it for her as a birthday surprise.

It has been in for 2 years now, started about 30 cm high and is now close to 1.5 m high.
