Re: G-9 banana plant?
That's what I think it I'd too, but is it Gran Nain or some kind of hybrid Gran Nain?

Re: G-9 banana plant?
I think it is not likely to be a hybrid for a number of reasons.

Re: G-9 banana plant?
I'm still learning all of this cavandish stuff. Lol thank you for your help. I actually have a Gran Nain that us about 7 feet tall and it looks like it is really close to throwing up a flag leaf. They are getting smaller so I'm hopefull.

Re: G-9 banana plant?
I know for it to be happening in spring is awesome. It's getting pretty warm here in Missouri so the bananas are going outside. I'm just glad I had a building with some skylights to keep them in over winter. Didn't hardly lose any of last year's leaves and no spidermites so I'm definitely hopefull.
