Black blotches on dwarf red stem
All
What are the black blotches on my dwarf red stem. Is this common? I applied Neem oil, water and soap on it thinking it is fungus? Picture below: Banana Gallery - Dwarf red Thanks Viji |

Re: Black blotches on dwarf red stem
Oh really? Does it look trimmed? I just got this plant few days back and didn’t trim myself. The seller removed couple layers of outer stem. That is all. Thanks for confirming that plant looks fine.

 However sellers will trim off unsightly leaves to make the plant look more appealing........which is common. Your plant looks healthy and your going to love the way it fills a space with those thick leaves. Good luck with that beauty. .Normal habit.

Re: Black blotches on dwarf red stem
Thanks a lot for the positive note. Appreciate it for sharing your banana pictures as well. I love my plants and hoping they thrive :-). Looks like i need to watch out for the red in particular in winter.
