If you look at the leaf ratio & pseudostem shape, it sure looks like a possible Mini-Manzano.
I see what you are saying. It doesn't' seem to be specifically called out as such, but it does appear to be shorter in stature. Perhaps I have a shorter sport of manzano, which if true I'll have to call it a dwarf rather than "mini". In my mind the term mini implies something very short, say 2.-3'. (let me know if mini-manzano is already an accepted as a common name)

If it tastes good I'll keep it and see if future p-stems end up being taller. Now I just need to be patient while I wait for it to ripen. Thanks.
