Hello everybody,
I have been writing a few posts here since I joined, but never introduced myself. I'm originally from Germany, but live in Greece now and became recently addicted to bananas. I was keeping my palm trees with quite good sucess over the last years, so I thought to add bananas to my collection and see how they'll do here in Greece.
After getting to know the different bananas better, you come across the Ae Ae's. So I got to have it and 2 days ago it arrived here in Greece from Hawaii. I repotted it into a slightly bigger pot now with a mix of 50/50 cactus and rhododendrone soil. I hope this will do it. Please check out the pic I took today. The small upper leaf started growing immediatly and has kept it's speed. I think the 6 day journey halfway around the world didn't harm the plant. I hope this will continue.
BTW: Do you see that little light green thing coming up next to the p-stem? It doesn't look like beeing roots, that came through the soil while (maybe) lying upside down within the shipping box. Could this be another sucker? I doubt it, but pls help me with your comments.
(The regular banana in the back is just for indicating the size of the pup)
