Beautiful!!!
Well thats my opinion I love ensetes they are odd balls in the banana family and many are giants. Yeah they don't pup but look at the size its a plant that demands respect a centerpiece in most if not every garden it is in. Oh and the flowers well they are what more than 1 foot across and look out of this world. Not to mention it dies after it flowers which means it will always be in demand LOL.
I tell you what if it sends out pups its a weed if it grows over 2 feet its a giant monster and if its flowers are bigger than a hand they are to gaunty. Boy you picky plant people.
Give me the oddest weirdest and most unusual, I will gladly grow them with a smile.

Taking the dead off the flower may help you enjoy it a bit more I may have some pics of one of mine with the dead removed away from the flower.
