Dear Furiends,
My banana plant has a new sprout! As I understand it, once my plant has two or three sprouts, it will then bloom. This is very exciting, purrticularly since last year, when I planted my baby banana, it was about the size of the little one. I think I have ‘green paws’ that phrase has nothing to do with the dye I stepped in last Easter – it means I’m a good gardener!
Mr. M has no interest in gardening, but likes to work in the shade of the patio and give me advice.
Have a lovely week, my furiends!

Most bananas grow from sprouts put out by the ‘mother plant’ instead of seeds. Once the mother (oldest) banana plant has 3-4 babies, then it will bloom. However, one can dig up the babies and grow a new mother plant, which is what I did.

It is exciting that your banana has grown a sprout. I hope you get lots of bananas. Personally I prefer my nippy nanner.

You should see the banana bunch on our neighbor’s tree — it’s way bigger than Saphera!!! I don’t think mine will be that big, but I’m doing very well as a first year gardener.

Gosh, that is quite green fingered in deed. I had hoped peep could grow something like that so we started on the basics, nip and the like. Sadly, seems even this is beyond the grasp, so I doubt we’ll manage a banana!
