It depends upon your growing conditions.  Growing fruit takes a lot of
energy.  If you have a nice sunny spot try leaving the flowers on.  My
Locotos, a Brazilian version of the Rocoto, are flowering like crazy and
I've been hand pollenating them every morning.  I haven't had a single
bloom on the Ulupicas yet, but they're vining all over the place.
