Default Have any of the Gros Michels Fruited yet?

I've been selling Gros michels on here for a few years now and am wondering if anyone has had any fruit yet?
I'm getting ready to finally plant my babies in the ground and cultivate then to fruit. Just wondering if anyone else has had then yet?

I am surprised you didn't pop a couple in a few years ago...

Any of yo have the redish mottling on your leaves? when they were young? and did it go away later in life?

In the photos of USDA ones I see no red mottling but all mine have them and I see it on one phot in the wiki. Does yours?
