Hi all,

I have a helens hybrid which I have germinated and it has split into 2 stems, is this normal?

I have added a pic in my gallery

Thanks

Could be twins.
Or two seeds were stuck together when they were planted.

There are more knowledgeable forum members whom will have a better answer once they see your post.

The plant looks very healthy though.
Where in the U.K. are you?

It definitely not 2 seeds stuck together as I sow them 1 by 1 on kitchen towel (after soaking) I'm on the south coast.

I was checking on the Ensete Glaucum germination thread and came across this.

The thread could be of interest..http://www.bananas.org/237302-post1.html

I've seen the same happen 2 years ago with a sikkimensis seed.
Both grew up fine and were separated when they where about 2ft in height. Unsurprisingly they were -and still are- noticably smaller than another sikkimensis that sprouted from the same batch :)

Both seem to be doing very well. I will separate them when they are about 2 ft high.

On another note, i bought 30 seeds and only 2 germinated! I still have the other seeds keeping them warm and damp hoping they may germinate

Yes, who knows how man will still sprout! At least you'll aready have 2 great plants from this batch. I've done worse... :D

I have recently sprouted HH as well and had 2 of 3 send up double sprouts. Too young to determine if 2 seeds or one.
