I checked yesterday evening to see how far off *my* estimate was... I'm
6' tall, standing right next to them they are well over my head. And

they've topped out yet.

I'll check with Red Barn...

Yes, I would. 'Silverado Sage' is a copyrighted name. If you ask me, it was an
entirely strange scam in the industry. I'm not sure what dwarf means in the
sense that 'Silverado Sage' is supposed to be. That may mean it can get 8 feet
tall.

A "small" tree is considered small if it tops out at about 25 feet. There are
no tried and true standards in the floriculture industry. At least there wasn't
when I was working in it. It is somewhat better now, what with the Heat Zone
standard and Hardiness Zone maps.

I'd be interested in knowing what they say, so please report back to the
newsgroup.
