When does puberty end?

I've read that girls stop growing once puberty ends. But, if it's true, when is this?

not sure that's true. I was in the army, and when I joined at 21 I was 5' 3", but when I left at 32 I was 5' 4.5" (just mention that as you have a medical on joining and leaving) and I have heard that girls can grow into their mid twenties.

Oh, that's interesting. I started my periods at 11 but think I'm the same height as I was at 13/14.
