I have been digging bananas all day. Here's a picture of the biggest mother corm that I have. The pseudostem is about 7 1/2 feet tall, and should fruit next year. There are a bunch of pups forming on it, and the largest one broke off as I was moving it. I sprayed all of the dirt off with a hose, because it's heavy enough without any dirt!

The whole plant, and the pup that broke off.
