Just so Andreas and others know, when Mitchel says "talls", he really means it. If I recall correctly, his tall Red and tall Hawaiian Apple (Brazilian) both got over 16' of p-stem and maybe 20+ for the HA? The HA were monsters for sure. He still grows some that get 10-13' or so, unless he got rid of his Pisang Klotek -- and we know that won't happen!
