My Aichacharu has a few little fruit on it.
I was walking the yard and found them growing - never saw it flower.

Hey Sleepdoc how tall, thick is the trunk on your tree?. I have one that must be getting close, I have topped it at about 8’ so can’t tell how tall it would be but is about 4” thick at base

How old is ur achacha?
-
It’s a good sized tree - maybe 12 ft tall, and wide. Trunk thicker than a soda can. I have to look back through my photos and such to determine age in ground. Guessing 7 or 8 years. I’ll update with more specifics ..

How many Achacha trees do u have?
-
I looked back through photo's - Tree is in ground probably about 7 years, but no more than that.
I have 2 in ground, 2nd one is younger and smaller.

Nuts! Must update on flavor when ripe.

Cheers Sleepdoc, I reckon mine must be a chance next season. I have also grafted a couple of Luc’s scions from a tree that has produced its first fruit onto my Achacha, will be interesting to watch how this develops
