Default Tayberry experts

The message
from mogga contains these words:

Well I've gone and bought two tayberries from poundland today.
Was quite impressed with the stock they had but the lad was just
filling the shelves so I suspect it had just arrived.


Will be planting them this week I assume - not read the instructions
on the back but have just read they might like to be in the middle of
a field ... on their own


"The strong growers should be planted about 4m (13ft)
apart. Medium strength growers need to be planted about 2.5m (8ft)"


4M apart? Just how big do they get?!!


IME around 25 ft in really good and well-watered soil.
