Default Re: Banana growing info

Tissue cultured plants will take one full year to get to some decent height but would be skinny and would need to brought inside during the winter in our area. These tissue cultued plants will easily die if left outside. It takes two full years before they can match the growth rate of established bananas, at least in my experience, and then a big chance that it was not labeled properly with the correct variety.
