Very distinctive, micro-dwarf, regular rugose leaf, determinate plants grow to only 6-12” tall – ideal for growing in small containers, even indoors with adequate heat and light. Surprisingly good production of tiny, marble-sized, orange fruits that are bursting with delicious, sweet flavor. Skin is a bit tough. First picture is of soft-ripe fruit on March 4, 2018, just 77 days from seed sowing, grown indoors under a 400-watt metal halide light bulb. Plant shown in second picture was taken on January 7, 2018, just 21 days from seed sowing - and flower buds are forming! Fourth picture shows open blossom at 30 days from seed sowing, from a seed that emerged in 3-1/2 days after planting on December 17, 2017. Plant shown in picture third from last is 7 months old in a 6” pot with new growth after producing 30+ fruits.
Update March 28, 2018 : seeds just separated and spread out to dry from a harvest of 17 fruits four days ago. Pictures added at the end. Full packets of 20+ seeds now available.
