Hi Frank,
The New Musa is in a large pot and I will plant it the next day it doesn't rain. The description give to me is that it will be very large and put up suckers several feet from the original so I think it might be the real deal. It is getting normal looking leaves so I will take a pic and post for you. I have killed M. sikkimensis once but was a mass produced little tissue culture plant. I should have given it more protection. Do you have your bananas planted? If so which ones work there?
