It's on the list, but have been swamped trying to get things done. The short update is the quarter grew and one of the 1/8 pieces grew. None of the rest grew. Based off that, I'd only quarter them in the future.
Interesting, my Musa basjoo didn’t come back either. Second winter outside and it was very mild this year. It was just my experimental banana, but that so many various folks had that happen is odd. My plants I overwintered inside are thriving. Hoping for a flower on some this year 🤞🏽 I need to acquire a double mahoi for the collection. I’m also trying to prop some red banana seeds from fruits I bought to eat. Apparently, they are notoriously hard to sprout. Months if ever…..we’ll see😂
It's bizarre. We had it colder last winter and they all came back fine but this year for whatever reason, they didn't and as mentioned, I've seen stories all over the place that people didn't have their larger stems come back.
No dedicated videos. I haven't done anything too special for them. I have them in ~30% perlite and 70% potting soil. They get daily water in the summer and stay outside late April to October. I give them banana fuel fertilizer every couple weeks in the summer, mostly because I already have the fertilizer for my bananas and I'm too lazy to try and manage special fertilizer for each plant.
Hi can you do a video of photos how the Musa banjoo grow from when you bought it to now. I would like to to know how fast they grow as I have just bought mine
Unfortunately I don't have video from when I first bought them. They were about 8 inches tall when I got them - ordered off Amazon 7 years ago. I kept them in pots the first winter and they didn't grow much at all. The next summer I put them in the ground and they got to about 3 feet tall that first summer. The second summer, they got to about 8 feet tall. The third summer they got to "full size" for me in my spot is about 16 feet tall.
Hey I have a blue Java banana it isn’t doing the greatest I had been over watering it and not realizing but basically the bottom of the stock got all soft and brown Ifbi cut it down to the base will it re grow? This is a indoor plant just want him to live
It depends on the condition of the corm, just under the soil. I would leave it alone at this point and just wait and see. If the corm is all the way rotten, it's not going to grow back. If there's even a piece of "good" corm left, it will grow back.
You need to make summer update! Cheers from Finland!
You are right. This has been such a busy summer I've had no time to make videos.
Hey hey hey! We need the musa basjoo corm quartering experiment update !

Any resources for growing the birds of paradise in PNW?
