southernbanana · 10-13-2009, 06:31 PM

Four weeks ago I planted 10 banana varities in small plastic cups, three seeds per cup and placed them in a rubbermaid rack system on the back deck. I soaked the Zebrina seeds overnight but all others were directly sown. I'll document thier growth and the future seed success, cause its fun and hopefully there is interest here.

I currently have 2 Ensete Ventricosum Abysiaian shoots, one about 3 inches and another just emerging.
