I can only take half the credit for this as I grew the plant from seed, my Dad looked after it until this happened.

It's in a pot an we are speeding into winter here, I hope the fruits mature.

Hi Dean
Unfortunately, we have been having the coldest November (down to -10oC)on record in this country and it succumbed to the cold in my parents un heated conservatory.

However I'm confident of another bloom next year with the Velutina in my conservatory.
