Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Ancient Italian cultivar. Self-sterile so requires a friend for fruit production. Sun, well-drained soil and occasional summer water in hot dry places for best fruiting. Quite drought tolerant once well established. For increased hardiness to cold, best to withhold water in the late season for hardening off new growth. Frost hardy in USDA zone 8.
