prolific and good tasting
it is like razor barbwire though and can be used in the garden as a deterrent for animals
when i brought the plant home from a nursery south of here i found a tree frog nestled in the crown .... nice safe place from predators

sounds pretty much like my sourdoughs, i got 10 off 1 plant. i cant get them to fruit so far in ground, but they survive, but i have eaten quite a number of softball sized fruit in pots. if they freeze they will come back thru the roots, sometimes more than 1. and after they fruit they come back, so you probably will have 15 or more.
as for your 14 suckers. you can get them to root by just setting the bottom of the suckers in water, but it will be alot faster if you plant them in large pots with potting soil.
i beleive i might get me a couple of white jades. thanks
