I bought this as I had one in my previous garden. The fruit here is not yet ripe but I remember it being large, juicy and having a good flavour. The leaves are very attractive and they stay on most of not all the winter depending on how severe it is - and being thornless, it is easy to prune and handle. The planting instructions were to plant 3 m apart and suggests the canes will grow 3 metres which is a little more than I remember. So I am amazed to find that here in a more sheltered garden they are heading well beyond their trellis, up into trees, over the fence – those I haven't had to cut back are over 4½ metres long and still growing happily - so I suggest that you don't try to fit this into a small space.
