Product Information
Highly ornamental, contrastingly marked fruits appear in great numbers and store well for later use. The fruits have an excellent flavour and grow to 200-500g, an ideal size for culinary use. Hugely versatile, the flesh can be used for soups, pies, roasting, char-grilled with salads and many other ways.
Sowing Instructions
Sow indoors, March to May. For surest results, 1.5cm (0.5") deep, on edge, in small pots of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20 degrees C (60-68 degrees F) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 7-14 days. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 90cm (3ft) apart, when frosts are over.
Sow outdoors in May. For ease, where they are to crop, 1.5cm (0.5") deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Allow 90cm (3ft) between sowing positions. Sow 2 seeds on edge per position. Early sowings benefit from cloche protection. Thin to leave the stronger plant. Water well until plants are established.
