Comments: -

They are growing quite well, are still in pots but have turned into nice bushes. They flowered last summer and are still holding onto the fruit. One has grown quite large and is inside now full of fruit. the other two are outside still and are still holding onto quite a few berries.

Grow in a warm location with filtered light, they like to be watered frequently and fertilized once every month or two.
