Ice Cream curvy leaves?
Does anyone know why my ice cream would be throwing leaves that are curved in one direction? The heat index here has been in 100+F range with humidity usually around 60-70%. Its been a bit windy at times though.

Re: Ice Cream curvy leaves?
I've had this problem with my Raja Puri Lately- some of the leaves actually curve down like a "U"
No Idea what it could be...

Re: Ice Cream curvy leaves?
Seems many members are experiencing this.
I have it on a number of banana species. They all grow fine, and this in no way seems to play a role on overall health. I am not sure what is causing it, but am willing to guess on the extreme heat.

Perhaps crushing Viagra into the soil or mixing with the water....

Re: Ice Cream curvy leaves?
I have the same problem with my 6ft Raja. It does this for about 3 leaves and then puts out 3or4 that are good. Just when I thought it was ok I now have another curved leaf.. I wasn't watering it very much when the leaves were curving, they are in pots..any ideas?

Re: Ice Cream curvy leaves?
Hey Amanda, I live in Gulf Shores. I went out and looked at my Ice Creams and did'nt notice anything unusual with them. I'll keep an eye on them.
Good luck and keep us posted. Thanks Bo |
