Default How tall/big does Esterina F1 get?

I have an Esterina F1 among my backup plants (I have another planted in one of my trellised beds) and hate to get rid of it. I looked at it carefully today, and it has baby fruit on it already but otherwise looks really healthy for a rootbound backup plant.

I can squeeze it into a non-garden area of my yard. I don't really have a good support system for it, though, and was hoping I could get away with pounding a few stakes around it and tying it up frequently.

But if it's going to be a rangy giant that gets huge and wants to turn into a jungle, I might reconsider.

So far, the growth habit of the one in ground already seems neat and rather sparse. Johnny's describes it as an "open" plant habit that makes it easy to see and access fruit, but they don't mention plant size at all.
