This is the first time growing this. My sister in law grows them to eat them in the Phillippines. I grew them to dry out and see what they look like. I was so excited when they finally bloomed.
I started them early , but for some reason the stopped growing. I then put too much miracle grow on them and they took off.
I actually hoad to cut the back they were growing everywhere. I only have 4 fruits on them.

If anyone has any experience and advise on growing them. I could sure use it. I would like to try again next year.
