Re: 2nd flag leaf on ice cream clump
I don't really care how many of the fruit actually mature, but that would be nice. I just like having a nice big banana clump sitting in the driveway to inspire people. (well that and sit and drink margaritas under and listen to Jimmy Buffet!!) It's good for advertising--You could see that one when you went down the off ramp to the bypass here all summer. You wouldn't believe how many people asked me where my banana plant was when I moved it in for the fall.
Maybe I'll have to do another pot for fruit production and see how many I can get on it. But I think maybe something more dwarf like a williams hybrid possibly.
