The one that is in my cold greenhouse is about 6 feet tall(maybe a little more) to top of stem. The seeds in my experience have been really quick to germinate and I had about 100% on both batches of ten seeds that I tried. I'd like to hear how your burmese cheesmanii fares for cold hardiness.
Bigdog- Did your seeds come from RPS? Does any others come back from stem in your climate with the same procedure? I'll bet the stem will survive.
In my other greenhouse all my bananas lost their leaves, but for some reason my Alocasia calidora's still have green intact leaves. Maybe it's the large veins it has on the leaves to circulate it's anti freeze solution?
