I dug, and potted, all but the largest of the 2007 pups (4½ feet) which I left. Shortly thereafter it produced several pups and, yesterday, I noticed another new one. There are now five pups from this year, and the plant is on it's seventh leaf. |
Thanks. I'm new at bananas. I can only assume that I have basjoo. So far since last November my smaller tree 4' had 2 pups, but no roots when I cut them off and they didn't make it. My larger one had 2 pups in early spring, inside the house, and I gave one to my daughter and potted the other. There are 2 more pups about 2 inches coming up now. BTW, my ex taught at SI Academy and my son graduated from there and now lives with one of his friends on SI. Thanks for your help.
