mine is two years old and currently has fruit. but the fruit are the size of them silver balls you put on cakes. and I'm certain they won't grow mo more as they have started to ripen. and u can't eat them as the contain impurities which you have to soak out.

Will these actually produce fruit in our climate?

Mine does but at strange times of the year.
I bought two that were about 2 ft tall from Tesco for £3 each and had them 2 years.

I've had one for about 3 years - it did produce fruit last yesr, but really small ones. I've had another 2 die over winters - they don't seem to mind the cold, but can't handle really wet soil for prolonged periods.

You would be the idiot if you picked them from the tree and ate them.

They will, but don't think about eating any from the tree. They're poisonous.

They're not poisonous, just taste awful straight from the tree. Need to be soaked in brine before you would want to eat them. Very easy to do but takes a while!

Certainly not poisonous just very bitter until they are cured or sun dried on the tree.
