When most plants tend to hide away during the months of autumn, this fruiting evergreen comes to life. Beautiful creamy-white, sometimes pink flowers bloom in 10cm long panicles and strawberry-like fruits mature by next autumn. In fact flowers and fruits can be present on the plant in the same time during Autumn. The soft, edible fruits are ideal to make jams and jellies. It can withstand temperatures as low as -8C after 3 years.
- We have excellent quality, 5cm tall fresh seedling plants, ready to be posted.
