Nice photos! I had a plant flower not too long ago, and although you can see there is fruit on the plant, they will not develop without pollination and then would have seeds in them. This is not an edible fruit variety. It is not yet known if this plant is a new species or a different form of a known species.

Here are you photos.

Wow, when it rains it pours, I guess! First the jury was out on what the fruit are like and whether or not the plant blooms at all, and now there are two reported to be blooming within a short time!

That is an excellent question. How tall is the 'mature height' of this plant? We should add more information to the wiki page.

I hate to bump...but I'm very curious whatever happened with the fruiting. Did they 'aborted?'

Sorry for the delay, I took these pictures today. 3 months after and they still the same. Well it's not an edible fruit.
