So if I'm wrong,I'm wrong,and it wouldn't be the first time.
I also remember some wonderful pictures posted somewhere here of de colgar types,hanging from rafters to ripen and those were whole plants.
Where did I go wrong,I know you'll tell me.

He's not holding a plant, just a trush at each hand. Those leaves are part of the fruit flush. There are two varieties one at each hand. They are usually picked at the stage of the one at his left hand, or slightly more ripe.
Now that I've grown quite a few 100 en pom de la Ribera and look at the picture, I'm afraid to say it's not that one
At least I'm getting something else from that variety (and I got the seeds from the man in the picture). I'm getting nipples and no ribs.
