I can only hope!!! I was surprised it did so well, considering how cold it got in the garage. Just waiting on some heat now!!!

I've seen a couple of the maurelli's in bloom here in the Houston area and they are quite impressive.

I wonder if it would be possible to force the Ensete corm to multiply by chopping it down when it flowers? Or would it be too late to use that method of propagation by that time?
