Hello!
I am so glad I found this site! :woohoonaner:
My boyfriend gave my a banana plant and after finally repotting it late last summer, it put out a pup. Both are in a pot, inside. I have no intentions of planting in the ground in my rental house. I think it is a Dwarf Cavendish, but I am not sure.

Some questions I have about my mother and pup:
What kind of banana do I have?
Does the mother look healthy? :nanaruns:
Should I put them outside for the summer? I live in Portland, Oregon... zone 8 I think?
Is it still way too early to seperate the pup? :bebe:
Is the pup a sword pup?
How often should I fertilize, and with what?
Will they need to be re-potted again soon? Or do mother and pup have enough space until next spring?
ANY OTHER ADVICE WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED, AS WELL! :03:
