There's only one trunk, and the parent tree took about eight years to bloom. The bloom itself has not yet flowered, it's just that start of a bud in my avatar. While the plant has taken a beating in a couple of cold snaps, it has never died back (just lost a few outside leaves when we'd get an occasional frost).

I think that if it does bear fruit, they will be edible as the farm that the parent came from was all edible fruit banana trees.

Still no pups around the base (our neighbor said he didn't get any pups until his tree died back).
