Default Re: Anyone grow Kru?

Hey all you gotta do is visit the gallery and type kru into the search
http://www.bananas.org/gallery/showg...x=0&y=0&limit=

This photo is from looking down a hill, overgrown with grass.
This plant is taller than it looks here! It's about 7' tall or so.



and this is AnnaJW's


It's pretty hardy. Mine ditched it's first leaves when I got it and started growing from out of the base. Here you can see the first leaf from when I got it being held up by a stick of bamboo, and the new growth emerging from the bottom. A fighter if you ask me.



I think the Kru is absolutely beautiful. Mine is a little over a year old and yet to fruit, so I cannot comment on the taste. The coloration on the pseudostem is rivaled only by few other bananas, it's really enjoyable.
