erland , if a two foot tall ensete was put outside in the spring and potted up a couple of times in the summer to maybe a seven gallon, would it develop a decent size corm by the end of october? our summers are warm.
I would definately think so. These plants grow fast. An uncle of mine put a 5 month and about 5 feet tall old specimen in a cold & dark basement for the winter, and it came back fine the following spring.
