Default Re: Bananas as waterplants???

Hello original poster here.

Just for the record the place wasn't Home Depot.

Anyhow I visited another nursery today and they also have a bunch of Ensete Maurelli growing underwater!! They have them right along side all of the canna plants.

I asked one of the staff how long they've had the plants in the water like that and she said they've been there for 2 or 3 weeks. These plants however didn't look as bad as the ones at the place yesterday.

I was going to inquire once again at the till but there were a lot of people there and I wasn't wanting to make a scene.

It's really weird. They are definitely ensete. The tag says so and there is no mistaking those leaves.

Maybe there will be less of a crowd next time and I'll ask what the deal is.
