I believe that this is the world's smallest banana tree at the moment! LOL!
I just divided It, and potted it in what could be the world's smallest pot! There is a ruler in the pic for scale, I believe that it is a towering 2 inches including the pot.
I thought that it deserved a good name, so I named it Helen Dallimore.

I don't know much about bananas (I'm up here in Canada). How big will it be to bloom?

Little prince hardly ever flowers normally though, not really much of an excitement. Super dwarf cavendish is the best flowering banana that is the smallest. It will flower at 3 ft minumum and about 5 ft max, anything above that is considered a dwarf cavendish because they are they exact same thing just one is mutated (super dwarf) so really the only thing that classifies this specific type is height. :woohoo:
