i bought a high color mini musa saturday.( im sure that by now everyone knows) mom plant and 4 pups in the same pot. ok, it was banana feeding time at the zoo this morning. i just noticed that the largest pup in the pot with the others, has a pup ( it is attached to the largest pup in the pot, not the mom plant). its a total of 2 inches tall.( the green leaves out the top of pup included) is this normal? or do i have some kind of mutaited banana, that will chase me down the hallway? or is it that it is so potbound that the plant has no room for roots and the only way it can continue to grow is to throw pups? the new pup just totally blew my mind.( thats not hard to do!) so i am back to the clueless in sparta thing ....again. im excited about the new pup, im just concerned that 5 pups is going to kill the mother plant.
not the best pic,but you see what i mean?
