Re: Dwarf Cavendish New Pic
Quite awhile ago I posted the top picture. Today I am adding a picture of the actual bananas hoping for identification.
The little bananas are brown in color but still very firm. Note: I am not sure how the shorter plant that has the splotches got in the same pot but the one blooming/producing is a different kind of banana. It is in a huge pot and taking up room in the greenhouse and if these bananas are not going to be edible, I will compost all the plants in the pot. Last edited by Bonnie : 05-17-2016 at 07:35 PM. |

Re: Dwarf Cavendish
What a disappointment. The Maho and both other bananas all turned brown and fell off. As the bud drops lower, no more bananas are forming.
Should I just cut the flower off? Last edited by Bonnie : 07-10-2016 at 05:44 PM. |

Re: Dwarf Cavendish
I have grown plants my whole life,but I have never container grown bananas, but that looks severely root bound. That might be part of the problem. There can't be anything but roots in there.
Then again, I could be wrong.

Re: Dwarf Cavendish
Yes the one is very pot bound but the others that the bananas dried up are not. And it did get ample water as did the others.

Re: Dwarf Cavendish
I was just about to remove my stupid post as I did not begin on the first page and read the whole thing. I have now, and I see everyone else already knows it's root bound. DUH!
