Lost Fruit of the Incas - this beautiful plant is worth growing for
its large, velvety, purple veined foliage alone. The fruit is
bright orange, about the size of a large cherry tomato and is
covered in small hairs that rub off when ripe. The pulp is green,
tastes like a lemony pineapple and is considered a delicacy in
South America. Produces fruit in its first year in good conditions,
harvest autumn/winter. Good in containers. Will survive light
frosts. Some plants produce spikes along the ribs. |
