Dwarf Orinoco
I got this huge Dwarf Orinoco on a trade and planted it on the ground today.
Can't wait to make some traditional alcapurria.

Re: Dwarf Orinoco
Huge suckers are low quality planting material and produce small bunches compared to what a small sucker would produce under proper growing conditions. This is my first time growing an Orinoco and wanted the first bunch to be very large so I decided to grow the water sucker in the photo with the red arrow.

Re: Dwarf Orinoco
I have a DO, that thing is a beast! Planted in ground in late February at about 18 inches and had fruit by November! Lost them to a cold snap unfortunately so I didn't get to try them. It's pups ate of top a strong start though.
