As usual you are on it Ken!!.."Plantanos Hawaiianos".....
I am actually getting 144 of them January 18th. I'll probably plant more as time goes on. I am trying to be very phytosanitary because I am growing a few variaties that are susceptible to Panama disease, so as a rule I don't plant anything that doesn't come from tissue culture. The big money bananas all seem to be susceptible to Panama disease.
