Has anyone had an orinoco flower in a pot? if so does it reduce its high, also my plant has been chopped back a bit during winter.
It would never survive the winter in southern Ontario.

The fruit it produces will be stunted in size, quantity, and quality of taste. In a 15-25 gallon pot I would expect it to fruit at about 5 feet above the soil level.
