Yeah, they are big. But not as big (I believe) as Louisiana pines, black pines, southern pines. And none of these have the reputation for egg-binding that indigos have. Also, I doubt if wild populations are so prone to binding. Natural selection would not allow it. I believe it is due to our husbandry, but that is just my opinion. It is a complicated species, but that is much of the appeal.
