Flowering
- Time To Bloom - 9-16 months
- Time To Harvest - 12-22 months
[edit]
Cultivation
- Mature Height - 9.5 ft 8-13 feet of pseudo stem.
- Survival Zone - Z-10
- Fruiting Zone - So far Z-10
- Cold Hardiness - Pseudo-stem survived temperatures in the low to mid 30's with no protection, but all the leaves were lost. momoese 11:48, 13 February 2007 (EDT)
- Wind - Leaves may break in heavy winds especialy after heavy watering, but the pseudo stems are stable.
- Sun - Full
- Taste Description - Very strong tropical taste with Apple and Pineapple overtones. Much sweeter and less acidic as they ripen.
- Personal Notes - Very susceptible to skin splitting if left on the bunch to ripen. Better to harvest the whole bunch at the fist sign of ripening.
- Growth tips - Plant away from dry hot spots like concrete driveways. Pups have a tendency to grow off the mother corm very deep under ground making them rather difficult to separate. Some suckers have come up a foot away from the mother.
