I have got a few of these lovely little but rampant plants if anyone would like some just PM me with your address and I will pop them in the post to you. They have quite tiny fruits but are juicy and sweet, they do very well in planters as well as the ground. Cheers Carol.x

Me please.......someone offered me some last year ( can't remember who) but I never heard any more about it. I love them and can't get them locally, I was going to try online

I can vouch for their spreading habit, they are very tasty and I think mine hitchhiked here with a white astrantia which originated from oop North ;D

Bet you could get some to grow just from one fruit RF! Plenty of seed available later I reckon x Tig

I have some in a trough by the kitchen door so they should be good in a basket better control I would say, the ones I have been digging up have sort of spread all over the veg beds even though they where only planted trailing over a wall in 1 bed and it was only 3 plants to start with (3 seasons ago)
