Two last-of-the-season, 3-ft Ensete Maurellis.

Stumbled on the 1st one, almost literally, shoved against nonbananas, on sale for $13.99.

I looked around for more, hopefully, and found 2 more--one was in pretty bad shape.

Dickered with the help for a discount--both were rung up $10 each.

Neat.

I've been looking all summer, all September, gave up all hope October; I came in today for soil and pots for cannas I got from sandy here, and VOILA!

Keeping them warm and dry under my homemade banana blanky. I added another old, old comforter overhead; they looking pretty comfy in there.

Just in time for our night temps here are below 42, early daytime 45.
