Default Six week update

It is always fun to see progress pictures. I am amazed by the growth of the M. Ice Cream... (6 weeks)




Dwarf Cavendish Update (5 weeks)




Does anyone have any ideas how long until I can expect a flag leaf on the dwarf cavendish? Tired of leaf after leaf P-Stem is about 4ft and to top of leaf is 6ft...

Default Re: Six week update

14 to 18 months if the are growing continuously there fast fruiter's that is what they were bred for
but if you have to over winter them depending on how long your summers are and exactly how you over winter them they could take up to 3 years if they don't fruit in that time they will probably die after the third season its sad but that is the life cycle of the Musa now Ensete Ventricosum live for up to 10 years but typically fruit and die in 5 sorry I'm digressing. i hope that answered your question
