Your weather sounds a lot like ours. We're like totally flat so 50 mph winds are common with gusts up to 100 mph sometimes. When mine get tall enough, I'll def need to stake them or put them on a leash, lol! We also had an ice storm that hit around December 10th that didn't melt for over a week. I def hope we have a better winter this year!

Okay so I thought it was time for an update on the kru, Tony's has flowered , looks great , I am very excited ! It stopped growing for a good 2 weeks didn't do anything. But now has its second leaf out since its been inside.It is at the back door, with huge windows up top facing south.

Tony, how tall was your Kru when it flowered? I know I have a ways to go but I think they flower around 7-8 feet of p-stem ?

And Greg, hows yours doing? any updated pics?

Just been reading through this thread today, such a great thread about Kru, creating by Matt, thought I'd share it with the members who haven't seen it.

Matt,


What happened to your Musa Kru?.....Any Updates?.....Just curious!.....






Mushtaq,


Don't worry, I got you!.....Our Musa Kru it's doing awesome!.....Hopefully next spring, she will go to the ground!....By then, Musa Kru should have a big, nice size rootball!.....It should take off growing quickly!....


As I mentioned and some other members as well, Musa Kru it's definitely not an easy Nana to grow!.....And you don't see Musa Kru that often!....But she is definitely one of the most beautiful Nana Varieties!.....Stunning, breathtaking bio-colors!.....Amazing!.....



Pictures from 12/16/2018.....Musa Kru just opened a beautiful and bigger leaf!.....
