Banana (Ensete Ventricosum )You may or may not know I love 'jungle' type plants!
I have been growing Brugmansia's for a while and at the end of last year sent a cutting to someone who sent me some seeds in return! One of these was the Ensete whose instructions included : Daily temp cycle 9hrs at 30-35C, 15hrs at 12-15c!!!! I haven't got time for all that, so shoved them in damp perlite, in a tupperware pot in the airing cupboard and forgot about them for 3 weeks....
Look what happened this was last week
this was this morning....
