| I don't know about wellington sources, but I noticed that a nursery with a web page in Invercargill sells them. The url is http://www.diacks.co.nz/fruit.html It says they are frost tender so I guess pots would be good. |

Hi Lucy
You can always buy the seeds online, as plants are impossible to locate in mainstream nurseries. Try
www.greenharvest.com.au
www.possumpages.com.au/newgipps
They should be able to post to NZ.
I grow them in pots and move them under glass for the winter months. While we don't get frosts here in melbourne, they do like warmth.
LOL
