Pruden's Purple
From The Populuxe Seed Bank
Grower: Kelly
Year: 2015
Accession: 76
Seed Source: Received from private donor.
Comments:
2015 Extremely poor fruit set - only grew one fruit, rest of the blossoms dropped as soon as temps got up around 25C. That one fruit, however was 640 gr (22 oz). The nice flavour and amazingly large fruit is enough incentive to try it again in a future year, so I saved seed from the one fruit and will attempt to regrow.
