This is from my neighbor who isnt into tropicals. :gifs_rojo I don't know what it is, it is all green now, and a fast grower(as all bananas are). That's about all the info I have. PLMK what yall think.

Looks like it might be a banana plant. ;)

Looks like it could be Ensete glaucum grown from seed. But identifying bananas before flowering is not always a good idea and unless its distinct plant, its pretty worthless. Do you know if it was grown from seed or from a corm?

It was from seed.

Hmmm...They were large seeds, so I know it is Ensete, But I heard Glaucum (snow banana?) has blue tinted leaves, which mine does not. Will it develop color as it ages or something? http://seeds.thompson-morgan.com/pix/m/seeds/8/805.jpg?file=545&size=1This is supposely a Glaucum. Mine doesnt look a bit like it. But who knows... Any other guesses?

The picture you show is E. ventricosum. Its just a seedling, so the wax may not be as appearent as on older plants, but in any case they are not blue at all, they are green with a waxy coating, which can sometimes appear bluish but I wouldnt say they have a blue tint at all....if that makes sense:rolleyes:

Oh, sorry about the picture, Stupid websites! I completely understand that, In certain light, maybe it looks blue. But not here. Not a big deal, just not fun to be a newbie and have a NOID!

Taylor, you might want to become friends with the "Rotate CCW" link in your gallery admininistration panel.
It would rotate the image counter clockwise for you.
Noticed that you have a few in your gallery that could use some rotating.

Check your post on your question regarding i.d. of your plant in your gallery. It probably is Super Dwarf Cavendish.
