The first thing that catches the eye is the beautiful plant! The large, serrated leaves have a purple tint, and the stems are heavily covered with prickles. The small white flowers are a harbinger of the deliciously juicy fruits. The fruits turn orange when ripe and are covered with short hairs. The green pulp produces a popular sweet and sour juice. The plants can overwinter frost-free and will resume vigorous growth after annual pruning!
