I have 4 Maurelii's.. It won't be long before I will have to dig them up and store them under the house.. Sooo I cut the smallest one down and cut a V.. in hopes of pups... I guess we'll see...LOL I will have to pot it up and bring it in...got my fingers crossed..

Has anyone tried/will be trying this with E. glaucum?

Thanks,

I hope to have a go with Glaucum this winter as I have two and I thought I would chop the bigger one and see if it would work. I have tried this with the normal Ensete V a few times without any sucsess. I seem to have more luck with Maurelli. Even my Monty didn't take.

Good lord man! That's a lotta s*%t! Interesting.:2212:

Re: Ensete Maurelii propagation?
 

Who wants to be bold/crazy and try this on an 'Ae-Ae'??? Obviously no one who has just one! However, if it worked, the results would be well worth it. I know when we brought ours into the green houses when I was at MOBOT we chopped some of them back to 1' or so and they really threw up the pups then. Food for thought! :banananinja:

Re: Ensete Maurelii propagation?
 

I have never considered trying it on a normal Musa as they all pup more readily. I have seen it done on Rajapuri to force pups.

I am down to two Ae aes and I don't fancy trying. Although I am going to chop the tallest one in half so it will fit in my polytunnel for the winter.

Right what can I try it on ??????
