Our average highs are around the 75-85 this year. No super hot spells. I've been commenting to my wife how this summer has been cooler, while still enjoyable is just not what my bananas probably want. What's throwing me off is my cannas, I just walked in from giving them a good shot of well water and saw a few are at 12-16 inches and flowering from that height.... these are the same rhizomes that two years ago pushed 6-8 feet. I never had to fertilize my cannas, I am thinking I'll start hitting them with miracle grow and doing twice a week on the bananas.

I was just hoping that after keeping my bananas alive indoors this winter that I would get a few of them pushing 6 foot plus, but I can already see I'm not going to get that.

Last thought, I do have quite a few pups on the big ones and should have probably been more diligent in splitting them but I didn't think that would do much since my plants with no pups aren't doing anything either....
