Hi everyone. I’ve been a fair few years out of the banana game due to a number of factors. Just got the itch again and I bought a trio of tiny plug plants a fortnight ago. One basjoo, one sikkimensis and an Ensete. I potted them up and they’re doing well - each one has produced a new leaf. My question is that the sikkimensis arrived with this little fella sprouting next to it. Hopefully I’ll attach the photo in a moment. Now my gut is telling me the right thing to do is to snip it off and let the bigger plant grow. But it seems such a shame! 😂
What do you think?
Thanks,
moochops

I’ve posted the image in my gallery. Is that correct? Struggling with a small phone screen here. It’s the one circled in red. Appreciate any advice! 🙏
