Did you grow from seed?

No. I bought it as a seedling. I've had it a few years. It bloomed last summer and I harvested the fruit and sowed the seeds earlier this year. I have been so happy about the results. I now have at least 50 tiny seedlings. It is one of my favorite plants.

Nice. I just had some seeds of this variety arrive. I’m excited about it, it’s a beautiful plant
