I'm curious if anyone has grown this fruit? What variety do you have? What can you tell me about care and nurture of the plant? Is it a tree or more of a bush? Is it fussy or carefree?

I'm in zone 10a and from what I've read, it should do well in my climate.

Anyone here growing Surinam Cherry?

"The rule of no realm is mine. But all worthy things that are in peril as the world now stands, these are my care. And for my part, I shall not wholly fail in my task if anything that passes through this night can still grow fairer or bear fruit and flower again in days to come. For I too am a steward. Did you not know?" Gandolf
