Default Re: My New York Office Bloom

You aren't going to believe this, as I sure didn't. I walked into the office this AM to find....BANANAS! This is really blowing my mind!

1) What type of Banana is that?
2) What was you watering and fertilizer (& type) schedule?
edwmax - The last six months it has been in my office, I have done nothing but give it lots of water. Last summer when it was outdoors, I did give it "Banana Fuel" (15-5-30) as I do all my banana plants.

As for what it is, I am not sure. I did order some Ice Cream babies from Wellspring Gardens a couple of years ago. I also have some hand me downs from relatives in Texas that just called them "Plaintain". I've done so many splits in the past two years I kinda lost track of which is which.

Anyone care to attempt an ID?

This is only my second bloom ever, and my very first bananas! My first bloom was last summer, and there was no fruit. I thought for sure my outdoor plants (MUCH larger) would be the one giving me bananas...not this one!
