Life is slower and sweeter. I must agree with that, for all we THINK we have here in the US our country has been swallowed up with materialism, dishonesty, greed etc..... I am happy to know there are still places where people can live a more simple and rewarding life. Many people in rural America still have that way of life. Many of the jobs I have had dealt with some very wealthy people and without question most of them are some of the most rude, crude and dishonest people I have ever met. There is good reason why the Bible states clearly most rich people will not inherit eternal life, they have chosen eternal damnation. Their money is their god.
Get ready, I think the final book Revelation is starting to unfold before our eyes. Jesus is coming back soon.
Peace to all

This variety usually takes about 5 years until first fruiting. How many, depends how big small garden is. I personally would not plant any in less of 20m2.
