Steve in France

I posted the pic Yesterday as some members noticed , thanks for the comments. Cassie it takes me only about ten minutes a day to water all the plants , being a Stay at Home Dad helps with keeping an eye on things and stopping problems as they happen.
One member asked awhile ago about the size of the Thai Superbum , I think it was Frank , so sorry for the delay with answering . The plant is about 4 1/2 feet tall and 6 feet wide at the moment . It was a small plant from Gabe in the Spring , great growth rate all season , but not I think it maybe about to flower . It's just a feeling at the moment , I'm not sure but I think the leaves are getting smaller and it's not just the change in season. I really hope I get seeds from the plant or I'll need to source anothe Thai Superbum for next year and they don't seem very easy to get.

Awesome looking plant, so big in that pot.
I wonder if they are self pollinating like Ensete ventricosum, and Ensete glaucum. I have a hunch that the other big seed Indian Ensete superbum is also self pollinating, and look forward to hearing if your Thai one is also.
Nice one!

Wow, nice plant! I have one India form superbum growing in the greenhouse on campus. I think you may be noticing the leaves get a bit smaller because of the constraints of the pot. Hope so anyway. It shouldn't flower that early, but who knows. I have seen three Ensete ventricosum flower this year, only one year from seed. Thanks for posting, Steve.
