Any other folks in Hawaii ever heard of it?

mr yug without getting too technical .. you are right the plant can get tall if its never disturbed by any cold weather. this probably wont be the case with most of the people in the continental united states.
it would be considered a dwarf by most of us because like tony stated the fruits bear early and low to the ground.. most of the people growing these seed probably wont grow plants over 5 feet tall.. we will probably harvest the fruit and compost the plants.
the fruits bear low initially.. can we just say this?? will this be quite ok?? maybe we can get the moderators to take the word dwarf out of the title if it bothers too many people ??
if it wouldn't be an inconvenience to you, could you show us how tall the x-77 can get in Hawaii?? this would be a nice contribution to the thread and it would help all interested parties learn more about this plant. thanks in advance
