2015 After three previous attempts to grow this variety, I finally got some fruit. Plant was small and sickly, and fruit was few. Could have been due to the age of the seed bank stock. Managed to harvest some seed, and will try again once more, but I suspect due to the fact its been growing in southern Ontario for so long, this variety might need higher humidity than I have available to grow.
