Right click on the google image and click 'copy image location'. To test, open a blank page; then paste the link into the URL to check the picture & correct.





Nice plants!

Do they grow very tall? Is it cold hardy compared to other varieties?

They do not grow very tall at least not in my neighbors yard.
They fruited at about 7 ft.

I thought that they were very good.

I agree looks like Manzano (Silk). They will get a lot taller than 7’ .. for me they get 14’+. Long skinny pstems.

They popular plant in Mexico.
