Very large plant that produces large purple, bell-shaped fruit. This is an old market variety and an excellent type for temperate and subtropical climates. Take care when picking as fruit has nasty spikes on its neck that more or less tell you to leave them alone. π–π‘πžπ§ 𝐭𝐨 𝐏π₯𝐚𝐧𝐭 β€’ Zone 1: September–November β€’ Zone 2: August–December β€’ Zone 3: August–March β€’ Zone 4: Any time For zone map click here.
