Default Becky's / Dwarf Brazilian harvest

In talking with Gabe and sharing a few pics he thought that my Becky's plant is a Dwarf Brazilian. I just harvested the first bunch and they taste very much like my Hawaiian Apple / Tall Brazilian. Mystery solved!

Here it is up front next to the green plank.


Flowering. If you enlarge the pic you can see a pup about 3 feet tall behind it. That pup was removed. It now has two almost full grown pups that should flower soon.
