Default Re: This is one large pup.

First an update; the first pup is now 12&1/2 inches in diameter 18 feet tall. We have had a light frost and I moved it to it's Winter shelter. Now the questions; we cut the bunch of bananas off the mother plant and I have read that you can ripen them in a bucket of water. Is this correct? I believe the mother plant dies after she produces but if I was to keep her in Winter storage and planted her out in the Spring, would she at least put out more pups? Thanks.
