This is a grafted plant, which can help it flower and fruit sooner than a seed-grown tree. The seller's specimen produced five large fruits while approximately 3 feet tall in a 10-inch pot. This is an example of the seller's growing experience, not a guaranteed result for every plant.

Fruit may remain on the tree for an extended period and ripening can occur from July through the end of the year, depending on climate and growing conditions.
