Default Re: Fruit time

I would suggest in-ground summer and in a container overwinter in your greenhouse for best growth. It will probably take 2-3 years to fruit in your area depending on care/conditions. There is no real 'time to fruit' for bananas....it's a certain stage of growth they reach. Really depends on conditions, could be 1 year, could be 3+. It's more dependent on pseudostem height than time duration. Not sure what height DNW fruit at typically, but I'm sure you might find something in the wiki or others who grow it will chime in. Once again, though....even height will vary some depending on conditions.
