Default Re: Corm Maintenance

They are all old corms. Maybe four generations plus the current plant.

Yeah, I took the whole stand out so I chopped up the above ground pstems, leaves, etc. and dug the corms. That was a lot of digging! Took my time with plenty of breaks. Those corms were heavy! Maybe 50lbs or more??

It was an Unknown variety. I still have two of them in my patch but decided to eliminate three stands to make room for a couple other varieties. Not enough land to just throw them out in a far out corner. I've dug pups and layed them up against the fence above ground and they took off. Bananas are hard to kill! I think I will toss them in the trash can.
