ensete Abysinnian Banana

Did it produce good fruit at that altitude?

It never produced fruit at 4000 ft elevation, but that may have been due to a number of reasons:

1) It grew slowly, so two years may not have been enough time
2) It was in a pot, a large pot, but perhaps not containing enough soil necessary to flower and fruit
3) It was cold! I had to angle it in through the sliding glass doors a few times in the winter months when we expected frost.

It probably reached 7-9 feet in height, so a nice sized plant. The green and deep red colors were quite attractive, so I was happy with it as an ornamental.
