I just want to let everyone know that the 3 photos of the Chico are from TAMU Horticultural website. I do not wish to give you the impression that the photos are from my yard. The fruits that I got from my plants were only 3/4 the size of those on the photos. I only got 3 fruits from 2 plants. The others bloomed but did not produce fruit. I wish I could find the photos of the spider that set camp between the plants. I thought that they kept the pests from going to the fruits.
