Re: Newbie Question
OK, I'm confused.
First, is there more than one trunk?
I don't see how you could have a single banana plant (one trunk) that is still living after 7 years even if it was verrrrry small when planted unless you live in a climate where it dies back each winter then tries again. If so, that is ONE hardy plant. HA But even so, in 7 years it should have flowered by now (or tried to) and that trunk would have died but then there should be more pups coming up around the base.
Also, I have never seen a green banana flower. I have around 20 different varieties (all edible except for a Zebrina) and they are all red. I'm NOT real familiar with non-edible bananas so maybe some of them have green blooms.
Can you take a pic of the whole plant and an updated one of the flower?
I'm sure some of the Gurus on here can figure out what you have.
