naranjilla ^5/10

Comments: -

needs regular water

keep out of direct sun in summer

after 2 years is starting to fruit  ( march 2010 ) likes 8 - 10 hours

 of light to set fruit form my reading

lush looking with large deep green  leaves with a purple tinge

as daleys suggest pollination is low

in november 2010  the fruit turns orange , rub the hairs off and the flavour is worth waiting for. unfortunatrely there isn't a lot of fruit  and the fruit are only slightly bigger than an inch across but delish
