Remi · 07-08-2006, 03:49 PM

I finally put my potted SDC banana outside. It's been a houseplant for around a year. I was going to put it in the sun, but noticed the tag on it said bright shade. So I put it under an umbrella. Can I gradually move it into the sun or should I keep it out of the direct sun?

And as long as you're reading (thanks!), the pseudostem on the thing is about 18" and it has a pup about half that. Should I remove the pup? It's a good-size pot but not a superpot!

Thanks!
