My largest are now about 3", but I believe maximum size to be about 4".

I agree with Toirtis.... 4" max, They are sold under tree or four different names. I have two that I purchased about 8 months ago. They are about 3 inches now.

Where in Texas? If I knew I could find them for cheap in my area, I would stay on the look out.
