Lucky fruit Chenopodium Strawberry
 
Got seed of this from China

when the seed came up I did wonder what I had but potted it into 3 inch
pots then neglected it other than to water it.
(Sacha, I gave you a pot with a few seedlings)
in the last couple of weeks the fruit/seed have developed remarkably.

The flavour of the ripe fruit is interesting, worth growing again with
more care.

I'll check that with Ray, David. The prop house is probably its home at
present!
