I love these! The one I used t grow had lovely apricot coloured flowers...it was self fertile. This is more like the one we have in the greenhouse at Glamis Castle where I work. There's a male on the wall, and a female trained as a standard. I can't wait to see if we get any decent fruit. Apparently last year they were very sour...but we had no sun last year, so not surprising.

We've never had any fruit on ours Karen ,we have this one on a hot sunny wall, I have two , do they have to be a certain age before they fruit ? perhaps both of mine are the same sex ,how can you tell !

I don't know Amy! Sorry! All I can tell you, is I kept mine for four years and there were no fruit, so I took it down..only to discover small fruit forming at the top! Grrr.....impatient as usual!

Oh dear , I mustn't laugh , I must look closer at mine this year , do you know I don't think I've ever looked closely for any fruit Karen Mainly because I didn't expect it to have any !!!

Yes! Mine was getting to be a monster anyway, so never mind...it was in my old garden.
