Default Re: Sikkimensis "Daj Giant"

Jeff,

It's almost 9 feet to the point where the new leaf is coming out of the p-stem. So far just the one pup. And yes, it's the slowest but hardiest banana I have. It has taken 3 growing seasons to do that.

I picked up a mekong giant at the plant sale last fall and it's doing well too. I'm eager to see how it compares this summer. I haven't had a chance to read the posts on it yet, hopefully this weekend.
