Default Re: What are the Best Dwarf Varieties for Containers for the Midwest? Dwarf Gros Mich

Mine has fruited at 5.5' - 6' under well-fertilized and irrigated conditions. The pictures on the TARS site seem to show a short plant. But, I have seen wide variations in other varieties at different locations.

Here they grow to 9 feet.

I think South Georgia was the furthest north that someone was somewhat successful...they had a greenhouse...and averaged 1 oz. fruit.
