Thanks, both of you. I am more interested in width than height. Any
comments?
thanks,
Ginda

For what it's worth, I've got one that's two years old here in Zone 8 in
central North Carolina. I has shown little sign of disease. It is growing
slowly and has not yet bloomed. It's about 102 cm (40 inches) tall now. It
was about 13 centimeters tall when I planted it.

In Saskatchewan they are 6 to 8 feet tall and start producing when around 4
or 5ft. For us that is about 4 years under ideal conditions.
We have only 100 frost free days. Once they come into heavy production they
only get a few inches taller each year.
You are 4 hardiness zones warmer. Maybe they will grow faster and taller for
you? Hopefully they will be adapted to your region.
They've only been widely tested in zones 2 or 3 (Canada Zones), and we don't
know how far south they can be grown.

So, after all the glowing recommendations of Carmine Jewel, I bought some
this winter, and I expect them to arrive soon. Any idea how big they get
when mature? I guess I'm especially interested in how wide they get, and
how close I can plant them to other stuff, like my back door and my tomato
pots.
Thanks,
