My two metre tall tree (in a LARGE tub) is down to 6 viable looking
fruits......They are about 3 cm long at the moment.


How large a tub? I'm thinking of growing one, but on a roof, and am
bothered about weight.

I have one in a 10lt pot that is now 3 years old and fine, I can lift it
with one hand, so not heavy. but I do have to keep it stood in a tray or it
drys out for a past time! I am sure somewhere between "Very large" and 10lts
is a good compromise to suit you :~)
