Default Re: Ice Cream Banana - No Pups....

I planted 3 four footers last year. One of my IC's is 12 feet with five pups, one is eight feet with three pups and one is 7 feet with no pups. No two plants are the same! You cannot say something is wrong. Your plant sounds fine. Obviously, soil conditions, watering schedule and amount, fertilizing, amount of sulight and tempature all will affect the growth of plants. I planted 3 AeAe's at the same time and one is atleast 12 feet tall with four pups while the other two are 10 feet tall with no pups. The funny thing is the two smaller one were California grown and my bigger one with pups was from ebay out of Hilo Hawaii.
