Haha you made me look. I just found some pups from a bananas that people had threw out down the street. I had to run out and see if I had divas or Mama's. Is that based only on the first leaf cuz they're pretty round now
It takes 9-12 months to grow, it’s technically an herb and it will give you up to 240 bananas on average and they are a PAIN in the you know what. My brother just cut his down after a few months because if you don’t remove the daughters they will take over. Good luck!
…so do the ones with rounded leaves give rise to a stand that will eventually produce fruit? Like if I got a pup in the mail and planted it would it eventually produce fruit?

I'm pretty sure they're called pups too which is adorable

Got bananas fruiting right now, didn't know the trick about the pups needing pointy leaves though. Really needed this info, thank you.
Can you greenhouse in cold weather areas?
When you think about it, we eat fruits of grass, since palms are a type of grass.
