Ensete livingstonianum
Hello,
I ordered Seeds from RPS (Rarepalmseeds) and used the usual methods (watering, heated greenhouse etc). After 1 1\2 months still no success. I always thought, that Ensete germinate faster than Musas. I know, that some Ensete variations are difficult to germinate, but by now at least one seedling should pop up :-( I there still hope ? The seeds where not that cheap, so i dont want to give up. thx |

Re: Ensete livingstonianum
Be patient, they need constant temperature about 30 degrees, 1 1/2 months is nothing when waiting for banana seeds.
