PanAmerican Seed describes its habit as mounded and compact, with healthy green foliage. The plants can be grown in containers, with or without a trellis. ## Growing conditions Provide full sun and moist, well-drained loamy soil. The listed spacing is 24–36 inches. The product profile notes that its compact companions, Little Bing and Little Napoli, ripen much of their fruit over a few weeks. ## Maintenance Plant after frost danger has passed. Maintain even soil moisture as fruit develops and avoid excessive nitrogen. Use a container with drainage and enough root room if growing on a patio; a trellis is optional for this compact selection.
