Default Re: banana growing in water

Vicki,

It sort of died this winter. The leaves turned yellow, then brown, then got ugly. I trimmed them off, as well as a couple of feet of roots. But the pup kept growing so I let it go. All of a sudden, it started growing again and has added four leaves in the last three weeks. I haven't checked the stage of the pup in the last couple of weeks, but the last time it had two leaves. I can't get my head wrapped around how it (the pup) grows with no direct light - it is under the lid of the hydro bucket.

Mike
