easy peasy
very vigorous plant, flowered & produced berries 1st season! They are not really a sweet berry, more like a tiny tomato but very healthy. I put them in my tea and eat them at the end.

Grew well 1st year
The plant grew to about 3 feet tall. It looks like a nice and healthy plant. I haven't gotten a single berry though. Anticipated years to bear is 2-3 years, so time will tell.
