Tamarillo Tree

Are they a big thick tree. I mean like get really big and wide. It says about 3 metres. I tried to google images but it does'nt show a whole tree. I just planted one in a perfect spot, but it is a little close to our window, so just wondering if I should move it.

I've never seen one 3m wide.My grandma had a whole grove of them, they were fairly close to the house and weren't a problem.

Seed grown tend to be quite large 2-3 meters high and about the same diameter;cutting grown , tend to be smaller, bushier, about 1-1.5 m tall etc.

Mine was less than 2 metres tall cos I didn't chop it when it got to 1 metre & it looked like / had the structure of an umbrella tree.

My one that blew over in a storm last year was around 4 metres tall, and the crown would have been that wide too. It was 7 years old and grown from seed- a prolific bearer, now have one of its offspring,abou 3yrs old and covered in flower atm.
