Default Re: Variation in seed grown M. itinerans "burmese blue"

Hello,

in 2010 I also sown seeds of the burmese blue from rps. Some seeds sprouted from it and each plant was colored differently.
For a long time I thought it could be the F2 generation of a cross and the plants are now splitting up, which is why they appear variable.

Meanwhile I think it is Musa arunachalensis that was delivered as seeds, because I have seen some pictures of the species and they correspond to my plants.
Now after 11 years in Germany, the first flower is coming on one of the plants, I am very curious how it will develop and whether it will bring new knowledge.

the plants also have a high tolerance to frost. In my garden last winter, a plant survived minus 14 degrees Celsius and a week of permafrost.

Has there been more experience with plants in the meantime?

I'll try to post a few pictures later when I figure out how to do this.

Greetings Stefan
