That fruit salad looks delicious! Thank you for finding these. I’ve never heard about them before and they look like just the thing for the garden next year!

Very interesting, Nancy. I was wondering if anyone has determined the nutritional value of these berries.

I’d trade our berries for decent tropical fruit. I’d also trade our winters for endless spring or early summer. LOL. The grass is always greener, isn’t it?

Thanks for sharing your experiment. This actually looks like a berry I might be able to grow here. I recently went berry picking for the first time-in a friend’s blueberry patch in Cazadero, Sonoma and wild blackberries in the woods around his home. I have to say, those are the best berries I have ever tasted. Just the way you don’t get the best tropical fruits in the US, by the time berries reach us they are probably two weeks old and certainly not picked really ripe.

Thank you for the post Nan! I saw these in the SSE catalog and was intrigued. Looks like they would be a good fit in Meadowwood Garden.
