Default Re: anybody tried to pup ensete ventricosum?

5 years or 50 feet here from seedling to blooms, usually, but if we have particularly hot weather in the dry season it can bloom as early as 3 years or 15 feet. Jazz, I'm in Ecuador and I don't have winter, I have no idea if you'd ever get the flower. You can try topping one of yours at the beginning of the growing season to see if it freaks out.

Mine average 3-5 pups per.
