Thanks for the comments on the Rajapuri. It took about 20 months to flower, but in a nice warm place like where you live, I'm sure it would be much faster to flower.
Thanks for the informative response; you're quite knowledgeable! So from what you're telling me Mysore is more a group than a specific variety; that'd explain the variation people experience between their individual plants. In all fairness, my plant doesn't have any choice but to be "water suckery" since it's a long pseudostem, having just been used to start a new mat, and can't very well support itself on sword leaves lol.

No problem about the Rajapuri; it truly is a beauty, warms the heart to see And I have to admit my heart skipped a bit of a beat when my eyes flashed across that 20 lol but glad to hear that's in a climate that gets horrendously cold weather; it should flower much sooner over here

Has any banana you had ever fruited much quicker than that?
