Musa "Rose"
Hey y'all!
I recently have recieved a few pups of Musa "Rose", I was wondering what everyone's experience has been with this variety, and what the best way to care for them would be? I've heard that they pup a lot, yet also have sensitive roots, how often do you all prune and sucker? How can I get them to produce a decent sized bunch? Thanks! |

Re: Musa "Rose"
They pup a lot. They have tough roots. Fruit is always very small. Tastes like a red banana and has nice reddish ribs on the leaves. Great Ornamental. Good eating, though you don't get much.

Re: Musa "Rose"
Ditto what Jon said. Beautiful as an ornamental but makes too little of too little fruit to be worth growing for fruit.
