What a difference bloom time makes
My Praying Hands bloomed in the middle of Winter so it already opened up with ZERO fingers lol
I also wanted to see what it would do. I'm going to chop it down this week.
At least the pups are growing strong! I should still get bananas this year

Please keep us posted on how big they do get. It will be an interesting experiment.

I certainly will let you guys know. I plan to let them roll as long as possible. I mean those fingers actually look pretty good right?
