We have a banana that has been growing for about 18+ months and still no blooms. What does it take to make them flower? (Cultivar UNK).Has 3+ pups and growing like crazy. Also have Lady finger (one pup) that have been growing about 9 months. Is there any thing I can do to hasten the blooms. Winter is about on us and even if we do live in zone 9-10 some times I have to cover them and the taller one is now about the roof line making the job a lot harder.
TIA
