Would you trust that storehouse of info, given the widespread misidentification of varieties, etc.? I'm not arguing against making the wiki more useful, just pointing out the limitations.

Much of this information is available elsewhere. For example, flowering height is available from USDA ARS-GRIN for many varieties. For Paggi, which came into the hobby trade from USDA ARS-GRIN, it is listed as 11.6'. Gros Michel is listed as 15.5'.
