I've checked that website and those seem to be seed issued plants and from what I read they are not always good... so I prefer to start with some selected varieties if I ever can find those... moreover they had only one plant and I seem to remember reading that this species needs "two to dance"...
The search continues... anybody else can help me?
Thanks in advance

I know people in the NE of U.S. most likely would have variety selections. I have never grew it, but heard it was popular fruit for making preserves. This article can help with research into it; http://davesgarden.com/guides/articles/view/1017/

Hi Nullzero
Thank for the info.
I'm more interested in fresh eating than preserves... so if possible I prefer some varieties selected for fresh eating... please remember me in case you find someone growing these.
Thanks in advance
