Hi everyone, just an update. Once again I have had success w/ Ensete. I've been doing this for a few years. It's unfurling it's 5th leaf now. Probably will go into the garden in about a couple weeks. Weather has been chilly here in NJ. I also over wintered Blk Thai but, no luck. I bought three more also two DC, Red Dwarf, two more Ensete Maureli and Musa Grannain. I will try to over winter again this fall. But for now I will enjoy my newbies. They are taking up all my space in my greenhouse window. I can't wait to see how big they will get outside.
Still going bananas in NJ.

Was the Maurelii stored dry?

Yes, it was stored bare root in my basement. Though it is warm down there, I kept it wrapped. Tried the same with Thai Blk and they rotted. I will take a pic & post.
thanks Lynda :waving:
