Thai black impressed me this year! Last year it was my slowest banana, but now that its in the ground, its one of my fastest. Unfortuantely someone broke into it so it lost a good 3 feet of pseudostem (had about a foot left). Now its almost to where it was last year and it should get to about 6 feet by the end of the summer (thats 5 feet of growth in a year).
My Saba (since Sabas were mentioned in this thread) has been a disappointment. The plant does not gain much height with each leaf, unlike my Ice Cream banana which has grown less leaves, but gotten much taller than the Saba.
I hope you guys can update on the Thai Blacks in this thread! They must be giants now!
