They're not growing that well this year on account of the constant rain and low temperatures we seem to be experiencing in Wellington at the mo. I see incredible edible sell three cultivars (El Camino, Incredible Blush and Incredible Ruby). I trolled through the internet and found this link that talks of nine cultivars. See this link http://www.crfg.org/pubs/ff/pepino.html

It's survived being frazzled in 45degree heat, being flooded, being torn out by a wwoofer then shoved back in the ground... and it's sprung up again! :-) Now I just need to get some decent fruit from it...
