Ensete Maurelii one month of growth
From this:
To this: It went from roughly 1 ft (leaves included) to 3 ft (with leaves) in just a month! One of my neighbors even made a comment about it, like this: O_o ! The leaves are really neat, sorta feel like rubber and almost look iridescent. Newest leaf has alot of red. <3 Last edited by Sundra : 06-29-2020 at 03:04 AM. |

Re: Ensete Maurelii one month of growth
Beautiful plant! Looks good!
This one is strictly ornamental right? How big do these get?

From what I read, potted or in cooler climates approximately 8 to 10 feet.(And maybe smaller depending on size of pot?) In ground in tropics around 20ft or so. Last edited by Sundra : 06-29-2020 at 11:44 PM. |

I always thought they only grew to a couple of feet. That's huge!

Re: Ensete Maurelii one month of growth
Wow. Very colorful plant. Do these do well in shady areas or do they need full sun?

Re: Ensete Maurelii one month of growth
Mine is on South facing patio, however due to large trees I'd say it gets around 5 hours of direct sun. The rest of the time it is in the shade. As you can see, it's very happy there
