Default Re: Esente Questions

Mine are in pots, and partial shade, they reached about 6 feet this year from 8 inch plants received in march, but I am pretty sure they would have gotten much taller in the ground, probably closer to 8 feet at least. My ensete glaucum germinated last december and is now 10 feet at the top leaf, also grown in partial shade, but it grew much faster than any other banana or banana relative I have tried. I just feed them miracle grow 2 times a week, instead of the once per week or two weeks listed on the box, and I get no burn.
