Default Re: I Did It, Did It, Banana Blooms Finally!

The reason they are not growing larger is because it is not an edible variety and the fruits need to be pollinated, edible varieties do not need pollination. M. basjoo is an ornamental variety, even if they were pollinated they would form seeds and still be considered inedible.
