Re: Fruiting height
Sarah,
I checked your pic and those are open petioles.
I have one of these too. AgriStart has them listed so they are probably the same clones.
I checked Lessard's book and he writes about the dwarf Iholena (Haa Haa):
"The Haa Haa grows to six to seven feet. It has a faint hint of burgundy color beneath the leaf and a definite line on only one margin of the bottom of each leaf."
Mine is hitting 6 feet now and pumped out a bunch of pups in the last few months (none before). This is my first Iholena too.
I'm hoping to see my bananas emerge as yellow and ripen to orange on this one soon!
Lessard also wrote that they are not cold hardy. Mine did survive our 2 deep freezes we got here in Pasco Co FL this year.
