Re: TRADE: my gros michel for your blue java

I'd be willing to trade pups, but my blue java doesn't have any at the moment. I only have manzana pups.

Re: New gros michel pups!

I'd remove them when they're about the hieght of your knee.

BTW, bananas are not trees. They are plants that grow from bulbs. 🙂

Re: Young Namwah or young blue java?

Thankfully, namwah is easily recognizable at an early stage... Those mauve (It's a color, purplish pink for men like me... My wife's favorite color, so I know it.) midribs give it away every time......

Re: Young Namwah or young blue java?

I noticed they also sell monstera borsigiana as deliciosa. Borsigiana is considered a subspecies but the resulting plant and fruit is nowhere near comparable.

Re: Help on my gros michel and ice cream

The corm is already an incredible power bank for a plant this size. Deleafing less healthy and aging leaves will lower risks of parasites and disease setting onto the healthy plant but also wake up...

Re: Help on my gros michel and ice cream

I'd cut away right now (deleaf) the lowest six leaves on the GM, but then that's me!
I seem to see a few thrips scars on the stem/frond base. Maybe some preventive insecticide would be useful
Nice...

Re: Help on my gros michel and ice cream

It may not be completely the nursery's fault. Their wholesale supplier may have mislabeled the plants. Or the nursery is growing out mislabeled TC's from ArgiStarts.

Re: Young Namwah or young blue java?

Re: Help on my gros michel and ice cream

As Steve said the ice cream is a tall namwa and the GM is correct. Both look healthy and normal.

Re: Help on my gros michel and ice cream

Your "ice cream" is a Namwah and your Gros Michel is what it is and both look very good.
