I'm growing 4 different strains, 1 is too recent to assess, but out of the others Dan's strain would rank #3 for vigor, so it's probably more resistant to the cold.

Is the other one just more resistant to the cold than vigorous,in your opinion?

This is funny but in all seriousness,I have grown like many of us,different "strains" of plants.Maybe after years,genetics of one strain weaken and some are able to keep vigor.Yes,they are all the same
musa,but I can confirm,some are stronger -jnstropic(Jordan)has had his for over 30 years...I grew one of his Ae Ae for years(great Ae Ae) but it displayed different behaviors than others i grew.So,something is going on:lurk

I traded a "Florida" strain from Thailand for one of Tony's ("Sunfishes strain") so we can grow each of them next to each other to see if they are really different. So far the only difference I have noticed is that the "Florida" strain tends to have a bit more consistent white and grey, but that could just be random luck so far. I think the "Floridas" got their name from the Thai's introducing a'ea'e from Florida to Thailand and then back to the states. We'll see.

Thats awesome that you can compare plants from two differnt sources.

I hope to get a couple more potted up so I may put them through the rigors of overwintering in the basement and to moniter the leaf color.

Looks good...I got one the had looked similar(brazillian). The plant took a bit to kick in but then it was just like some of my other plants. Good wishes to you.

I like the way your soiless mix looks ....nice and airy.
