Default Re: The Ensete Tent ( long winded with lots of pics)

Super awesome Bob! I hope it works out for you. Just wondering - do you need to leaves on for the winter? Might be easier to protect without all that height and bulk. If the goal is to get seeds, how will you protect the flower spike? Does photosynthesis need to take place?

Was this one grown from seed? If so, and if I understand banana naming, there should be no reason you couldn't name it E. glaucum 'Bob', but not var. 'Bob'. You have the only one of that in the world, so go for it! If it was a from a pup, or tissue culture, then that's different.
