Re: Banana flowers without leaves

The stem that bloomed will die, the pup will take over and continue to grow. The corm may also put out more pups.

Re: Replanting corm in spring...zone 5

If you want to start waking them up you can pot them up. Water sparingly, put in an warm area with good lighting. Give them time, a watched plant never grows.:ha:

Re: I'm seeking counseling...My banana is no longer with us.

Sounds like too much water. Does the pot drain well? This time of year it is best to let it dry out between watering, they will grow slowly or go dormant for the winter. The corm may put out some...

Re: Cavendish After a thunderstorm

I just stand them up as much as possible. Some are too tall and I have to lean them over.

Re: Hello! I'm new at this and I have questions!

Check YouTube video's & there is some good info here. When wintering over do not over water. Your plants will slow down or go dormant and wet soil can and will rot the roots.

Re: Cavendish After a thunderstorm

Re: Musa Cavendish - deformed fused leaves

Are you fertilizing it? Too much fertilizer can cause this problem.

Re: Help - Banana Leaves Going Yellow And Curling Up

Get it out of the standing water and the plant will sort itself out in time, yellow and old leaves can be cut off.

Re: Dead tissue culture banana from the post office, can be saved?

Cut it back to the corm and plant it in a pot that drains good, it looks like it has a few roots. It might grow back for you, let it dry between watering.
