Looking fantastic Hector. I'm interested to see how long the rachis is going to be on Thousand Fingers. Love the coral pink/red petiole on iholena tigua.
Looks like Musa Ele Ele needs adding to the collection next year😁 |

as usual looking great banana doctor. found out one thing about my sumatrana's this last year, when they are small they do not do well in direct sunlight. I had to use 50 percent shade cloth which worked. I am thinking this coming year to move them in a more shady spot.

Thank you, and I also noticed he is using a mix with perlite. Makes sense to me.
