Here's mine. Unfortunately, it went to the big banana farm in the sky. The combination of Ike and winter was just too much for it. Sorry, Steve.

Brent I almost hit the "thanks" button for you posting your picture but I think condolences are more in order. Hope the next one does better.

Just j,
Is that an Ensete Ventricosum 'red stripe?' Great picture...and I'm not totally accustomed to the next leaf being so close in succession to one already opening. My super dwarf cavendish puts new leaves out with a tiny first bit of the next, but my ice cream waits over half a week between when one leaf opens and being able to even see any of the next leaf. The plant in your picture seems to have a much faster growth habit....and very beautiful also!
