I'm going to grow one of them up some trellis outside our pavilion and the others on my plot.

Let me know how you go with these. They look interesting. Do they taste nice? Apparently they are very prolific!

Sparkly - I've grown them for the past 3 or 4 years now, but never had any fruit off them.  I grow them for their fantastic speed of growth and exotic appearance.  I did try eating one I bought from the supermarket but I didn't like it so I don't mind if they don't produce anything apart from lots of leaves!
