It's completely normal, you used the height from 2 months ago.
5' in 11 months

It was an 11' pup, so I had to planted it a foot deeper for support.
6' in 11 months

Because it was an 11' pup transplanted with no roots, it took about 3 months to push.
6' in 8 months

As it get closer to bloom and starts stacking leaves, height slows but adds more girth.

Plus it's a slow growing cultivar, with that said, this is the largest banana plant I've ever grown.

This plant is huge.

I don't normally move 11' pups, so I don't know what to expect for bunch size.
