Ours never grew as large as these in the link, but more about size of common grape. Trees kinda grew half wild in the area. We knew of just a few more.
I have 2 of these trees at my house that came up off of the roots of my dads 2 trees, which he got off of his grandpas trees in Texas 20+ years ago. They come up in his yard all over the place. He digs them up and gives them away. The 2 I have are only 5' tall and they made fruit last year. I'm sure my dad would cough one of the new growth trees if you wanted one. Pm me if so.
