FULL-SIZED BEEFSTEAKS ON DWARF PLANTS!
Beautiful, 4-10 ounce chocolatey brick-red fruits of exceptional flavor, on stocky dwarf plants that remain under 3 foot tall!
While short in stature, plants tend to spread horizontally, so prepare for this ( as much as 3 foot ). Heavy trusses of fruit necessitate the need for at least a couple of sturdy stakes noting that the larger the pot you give it, the wider the plant will grow.
HISTORY: A stabilized bee-cross of 'Grandma Oliver's Chocolate' X Unknown Dwarf, discovered here at Michigan Heirlooms in 2014.
Sold in a 3.5" pot.
