This is CIP 702860 / Yuguima, originally collected in Puno, Peru. I requested it from the genebank a few years ago, established it in tissue culture, and only got around to growing it this year. Not much information is available. It looks like it is probably diploid, but I haven't checked it yet. It produced some berries without any help. Small and low yielding, as expected for a short day plant, but I'll let it go later next year and see how it does.
