Indet, beautiful and very tasty variety. Grew it to a single stem in the greenhouse. LanaD shared a seedling with me. Fruits are flat-round, burgundy-brown with green stripes, up to 14.1 oz (400 g).<\/p>\n

Sveta, how did it do yield-wise? And what kind of height did you get?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Production was good, especially considering I grew it with pretty tight spacing. It set fruit really well near the top of the plant. Grew it in the middle bed, tied the top to the greenhouse roof, so it reached about 6 ft (1.8 m) before I topped it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
