Default Re: Different looking pups

Those are sword suckers or sword pups. They are the best to use when propagation, they are the fastest growing type of pups. Congratulate yourself for having them. Sometimes these grows to over 4 ft in just a month, based on my actual experiences. The umbrella type pups, the ones with larger and bigger leaves, they grow slowly and usually smaller sized banana plants, trunk, or fruits/bunches.
