Guess I should have clarified a bit on heights going into winter. On the tall varieties, I shoot for within 1-2ft of bloom height (trunk). But have had them put on as much as 3ft (trunk) and produce fruit successfully in a season.
On the Dwarfs I shoot for within a foot of bloom height.
It should also be mentioned that I no longer have any tall varieties in my yard, all have been moved out to new owners
. Just wait till they get their first taste of digging them and disposing of the spent trunks after harvest
