Thats awesome! Im glad they came back so well. I wonder if doing this will delay flowering. For most bananas delaying flowering is a bad thing, but I consider it a very good thing if an Ensete never flowers! It might actually be a benefit to keep it outside during the winter in that case! Right now my ensete is being attacked by aphids so it might be in the ground and staying their next year if the problem worsens! Do you have any pics of its tallest height?
Thanks for sharing!
