Default Re: Two year old SDC

The plant is two years old from a tissue culture. It grew slow for the first few months but then started to pick up speed. I just use miracle grow or some generic fertilizers on it occasionally.

Hopefully it fruits at somepoint. I know people say they are hard to fruit so I'll just see how it goes. Perhaps next summer it will be ready because it won't grow much until then.

@Pallen: Good luck keeping the banana outside. Did you run out of room where you stored it last year? Or it got too big? I lived in Corvallis for 2 years - and saw snow and ice both years. Hopefully your winter won't be that bad.
