Congrats on your new banana! I like the corm size, and I'm guessing that the yellowing of the leaves is normal in transport. Good Luck!

browndrake · 07-29-2009, 10:27 AM

congrats on a new ice cream.

I understand being excited. When my first bananas got here a few weeks back, my wife said I was acting like a kid on Christmas morning. I guess it is kind of silly for a grown man to act that way...BUT, isn't life just better when we get excited about things and have such wholesome fun!

I'm glad you finally got your Ice Cream that you've wanted for so long! Nice packing job as it looks like the leaves aren't broken.

kaczercat · 07-29-2009, 04:21 PM

yes i know the plant came in such good health the packing job was done extremely well.

bama1 · 07-29-2009, 07:15 PM

congrats ! I just aquired two icecreams this spring . got them in the ground and they are about 8 to 10 feet tall with about six offspring pups. cant wait to see how well they do before fall arrives.

kaczercat · 07-29-2009, 07:21 PM

about three feet in tiny quart size pots. found them in a gulf coast nursery.

kaczercat · 07-29-2009, 08:02 PM

Oh wow lucky you found those and gave them a nice new home

LilRaverBoi · 07-29-2009, 11:31 PM

Sweet! Congratulations! I hope you enjoy yours...they're beautiful plants! The leaves get dark pink outlines, pink midribs, light pink petioles along with a nice silvery pseudostem. Best of luck with it! I'm sure it'll take off in no time!

kaczercat · 07-29-2009, 11:37 PM

Looks great! Pot size should do just fine for the next few months, may want to go a little larger after that. Remember, Blue Javas Luv lots of sunlight so after it gets over transplant shock, move it more into the sun. Have fun

!

conejov · 07-30-2009, 06:32 AM

It took about a week for mine to get over te transplant shock then it started putting out a leaf.

kaczercat · 07-30-2009, 08:59 AM

the weather here has been crummy. in between 64-72 but no sun , overcast but the weather network says its going to get better in Aug. its slowed all my banana down

Yeah, our weather's binx'd too; 10 more days of clouds & t-storms. Great for my new stuff in pots, though. They can bask in the sun all day without getting Hot sun

! Makes life great for them while they get adjusted to their new life.

kaczercat · 07-30-2009, 10:40 AM

i have no clue but hopefully this weird weather means we aint gonna have a nasty winter like prevous years there was one year about 2 or 3 years back we didnt get snow until Jan or very end of Dec . but last year we had it in the start of dec. very inpredictible
