Re: Bronze flag leaf!?!?!?
It is a bronze ornata. I also have lavender most of which are bigger than the bronze and no blooming yet, hopefully soon!

Re: Bronze flag leaf!?!?!?
Just an FYI, the correct ID on your plant is Musa laterita. They are often listed as M. ornata in the trade, however.

Re: Bronze flag leaf!?!?!?
Its amazing its so small. The main pseudostem I got from Chris in May didn't make it and this one popped up so it was just a baby not even 2 months ago. It's only about 4ft tall total! I can't wait till I have a bunch blooming. There are 2 pups coming up from this one plus I have 3 others planted around the yard that I got from him my 2nd trip! Can't wait!

Re: Bronze flag leaf!?!?!?
What is that super fuel you are using? That plant is exceeding the speed limit. Save me a pup if you can. I might even have to come up and check out your plants soon. Don't forget to let me know when your supply is replenished.

Re: Bronze flag leaf!?!?!?
Is it just the lighting or what? The bracts seem extra dark in these latest shots. Beautiful color!
