    I grow them, though I've not sown any this year I've got one that I've over wintered slowly kicking in. Yours looks really healthy but I would be tempted to pinch out the growing tip to get it to branch out.

          Hi, I've overwintered one too. IMO very slow growing but I am up north they do give a few fruits for me but not exactly a "gooddoer" best of luck anyway, love the taste of these.

            Meant to say, to scared to pinch it out at all, looks far to stressed already but it is only about 9inches high, no leaves below the "tree like" growth at the top. As a side ,sis (she had plant from me last year) wondered why I had took all the bottom leaves off!! Her's looked great!
