I have a leaf on my 1076.5 Werner that is 19 1/2 inches, how big do they get?

Just kidding! 22.5" is the largest I've had in my patch, though I'm sure larger is possible, especially if pruning every other vine...

CEIS, this is true but the leaves size has to have a great deal in the healthyness of the plant!!
