This extremely rare and succulent fruit grows wild in the foothills of the Southern Chilean and Argentinian Andes. Long-treasured by locals, it is easy to grow and extremely hardy, and will produce an extended crop of deep red, ripening-to-purple berries from midsummer onwards. These unusually large sweet juicy fruits are exceptionally long, tapering almost to a point.
