I have a male plant, probably ( the females seem to be more prone to disease and that is why they are hard to find.)
Can someone please tell me where to get a female? I must get berries from this one!
Thanks, Christie

'Pumilum', that is one that is supposed to be a female. Anybody know where to get one? It's so darn hard to find!!!

Mrs Colla, A seach of the internet brought up a hit that said the variety "Green Mound" is male.

Check out the link. It is not a source for the plant, though.

My bad, reading too fast... sorry. However, the other variety on that page did not say it was a male.
