Pure propoganda. I grew them in Indy-by-gawd-anna the last few years and
they thrive. They are a big-leafed plant like a hab and they were extremely
fruitful at the end of this year's drought.
That stuff about how they won't grow will probably also be contradicted by
the proprietier of Mild-To-Wild, Jim Campbell The Oneth. He had several
datil tree about 30 miles north of here.
