how do they propagate them there? from cuttings? or do the plants live many years? I grew this one from seeds.
It's really good to talk to someone who lives where they're available.
It had a good flavor, not really sour, more like a kiwi. Lots of seeds. It was fun to eat something like that in Indiana, in the winter.
Thanks for all your information/help!
