bananas
I would cut all the leaves off, then cut a few inches off the top at a time
until you come to some green. Then leave it alone. If you don't come to some green, cut it to within 6 inches of the dirt, and leave it alone for a few months. Banana trees grown commercially, are cut off at the ground after harvesting the stock of bananas. The tree then sends up a shoot from the roots, and these are the replacement trees. If yours is still alive, it will put up a new shoot, and next year it will be your new tree. Dwayne wrote in message news Hello, I bought a banana plant last year but I am afraid it has gone all brown. I had to go away for a few weeks and I think that's when the damage was done. The family came and looked after the house and I guess either forgot to water it or over watered. Will it recover? Is there anything I should do? Do I cut all the brown leaves off? Thanks. |
