It is a relatively small plant, but it is not technically a dwarf, which is defined by leaf length to width ratios, petiole length to blade length ratios, etc. It's a beautiful plant, but a terrible fruit producer for me. Tiny fruit that often fail to develop properly. That's partly attributable to my climate, but even under tropical conditions, the fruit are very small.
