I can vouch for Uchiki Kuri. They taste amazing and just harvested my last one on Saturday
I planted some early in the season and none germinated, so though I’d bought duff pack of seeds from eBay.
When monty planted them earlier in the year and said there was still time, I gave them another go and they all germinated (I think my gardening room earlier in the year was too cold)
My learnings were that for a good haul, some hand pollination may be required.
I had lots earlier in the year that produced small yellow fruits which rotted away after a couple of weeks when the size of a golf ball.
I started removing the male flowers and pollinating the female flowers and this seemed to stop that so hoping for a big crop next year with this knowledge
