These were always in our garden when I was growing up, so I decided to try them, too. They tasted great fresh, and very few of them actually made it into the house for freezing. I was surprised they didn't bear better, though. For the 21' row planted, I really didn't have much to show for it. I'm going to plant them again this year and hope for better results.
