![]() This was bought as Ice Cream. But the height is too short for Ice Cream as i read everywhere.
It is my most cold & wind tolerant type. Last winter the leaves stayed green (in all my other types theye were yellow) and never shreded. Now i think that i see a flag leaf and a flower coming. Height is 5ft. It also produced more than 5 pups. One particulary pup i took it off without roots and i left it horizontally in a cement for 5 months because i thought that was useless. After 5 months i made an experiment and put it in the ground, and now it has roots and the base is getting green! It seems that it never dies.. What is it? |

![]() The leaves look very tight and upright like a Rajapuri. Post some closeups of the flowers when it opens up and I'll post some closeups of Rajapuri to compare.

![]() Can we get an overall of the whole plant, from a little further away?
I'm definately not thinking Rajapuri anymore! SDC now comes to mind but lets see an overall shot http://www.bananas.org/wiki/Musa_Super_Dwarf_Cavendish How long did it take to get that plant to bloom?

My last SDC died within a month or two. And the height op pstem is exactly 5 ft - 1.5mm. The last leave touches the ceiling wood which is 2.6m (8.5 ft) high I planted it 15 months ago. There is no space to stand for a better photo. Here you can just see a Saba pstem on the left. Ice Cream is in center and here is a night shot - with my son who is nearly 5years old. I also have a Rajapuri around there, which generally looks a little different. |

![]() Yep that would probably be too tall for SDC, among other reasons..
I don't know, but those new pics might help trigger a response from someone with the same cultivar. As the bloom opens please update the thread, as you know, the flowers help distinguish one from another. Cheers
