Just an FYI, the correct ID on your plant is Musa laterita. They are often listed as M. ornata in the trade, however.

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!

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.
Thanks

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

I took these at 8 at night so that might be why. I will take a picture today with day lighting
and post. I work until 7 so I have to run around the yard to see everything before its completely dark lol. I will be sad when I lose daylight hours!

As far as fertilizer I am using banana fuel from plantsthatproduce.com its really awesome! I'm out and have to order more next payday lol.
