Byron-
I have one that I originally got from the USDA several years ago. I
planted seeds Feb. 22 and picked the first ripe fruit July 1 or so. They
are small, about the size and shape of a .22 shell on the average, C.
Baccatum, hints of evergreen before ripening, typical fruity ripe
red-orange soft flesh, heat about Tobasco type. I tried to isolate some
for seed but they did not do as well as I had hoped. I'm sending some
seed out to some folks who asked, will add you to the list if you send
your address.
