I don't really care if it fruits or not -- it's actually done its duty 
already.  No more neighbors trampling my plants!  :)

It's barely hardy here, so I'm not sure what it'll do.  It seems to have
topped out at about 2'.  I'll be thrilled if it does flower and fruit, 
though!

That corner of my hard is very well-protected.  I have a Davidia
involucrata var. vilmoriniana (supposedly the hardiest variety) growing
well there too.  I really hope it does well!
