Also, it is right next to the house, which keeps the temps up some. It is just a very slow grower over winter, maybe a single leaf produced over 3 months, whereas other varieties (especially the Pisang Awak ones) will grow more than that. As a result, it is slow to produce fruit.
Was it worth the wait?
