We grow the variety "Schönbrunner Gold" which was developed at the Horticultural Research Institute in Schönbrunn, Austria.
We find the flavour outstanding and the fruit look amazing in their cocoons.
A great variety we highly recommend.

Final thoughts.
It was a very easy crop to grow and would suit a less active gardener as well as anyone looking for some variation in vegetables. The appearance is more exotic than the slightly mild flavours. But we will grow this crop again.

Picture 3-4 cooked
Fat baby: similar to bell peppers when cooked. The seeds of the young plant looked very nice when cut in half. Good as cooked and possibly good to pickle.
Lady’s Slipper: Thiner walls than the Fat baby and the flesh curled nicely. Good to cook, but perhaps even better to pickle?
