A small, thorny, tiny, leafed plant with finger-like fruit with tart, round, juicy, light coloured vesicles. Harvest when green in winter or allow to mature to a rose-pink flesh for a sharper taste. Great in pots, but it is frost tender. Harvest time approx. winter through spring.

Position and care - Plant in full sun in a warm position sheltered from wind and frost. Avoid clay soils or very wet sites by planting higher on a mound to aid drainage, and by incorporating plenty of compost at time of planting.
