I got some pics (a while back) from a friend whose neighbor had a long line of these plants along the back of his property. He sent me pics of the fruit but said they taste like Apple and get about 6 feet tall
Any Opinions would be great. It has been suggested they are Dwarf Brazilian.
Would love to hear what anyone here thinks

Thanks

While we are waiting for the real experts, I can tell you to rule out dwarf Brazilian. They have "persistent bracts" - the male flowers and purple covers do not fall off like those have.

Thanks Gabe... But isn't Manzano taller? I was told they never get taller than 7 max but most are only about 6 feet.

But it's definitely Not Dwarf Brazilian?

Height is extremely variable based on conditions. 6-7ft is rather short, but possible. It is definitely not ‘Dwarf Brazilian’.
