So far I like Raji puri for it's ease in getting it to fruit--maybe I am opening my mouth too soon, but I bought it last year and it made it thru the winter with all of it's leaves and is now blooming. This is my first one, but that seemed easy.

I hope it is that easy with my 3 new varieties--Ice Cream, Dwarf Red, and Dwarf Cavendish.
