This is an apple pup I have just received by post from a friend. Arrived in really good condition with just a slightly tattered leaf. With all the rain we are having at the moment (10.45 inches this week) the nanas should take off soon. Luckily we are well drained.

That looks great to me, and I have no doubt that it will take off. When I went to Dominican in 05 I couldn't believe my eyes at the greenery and how nanas just grew every where. You must love living there.

Now let's hope the neighbors behave themselves and keep their stinkin weedkiller on their side of the fence. :)

Not doing much atm. I gave it a foliar feed the other day to encourage it. It also seems to have lost the variegation on the original leaves - we will see what the next ones look like.
