Smile Re: FS>> 2 Different Variegated Musa *RARE*

Varig8,
Ok,
Plant the musa Florida in your gardens and let them grow to flowering & fruiting stage, you will know this is a newest variegated cultivar of banana plants. I think this means we are looking at the world's newest variegated cultivar of banana plants.
When you get fruit of musa Florida-cut the fruit lengthwise and look for hard dark brown seeds, you might get them to germinate.
It seems to had old name "Musa Linn"
Your musa Florida need protection from thieves & animals....plant the thorny plants around musa florida or put potted thorny plants, as thorns keep animals away from your plants. Buy new pots & compost for suckers (baby plants) of musa Florida.

Cheers

Clinton.

Variegated Musa "Florida"
and PS, Its already sold........The Variegated Indo Ivory is just that, no question as to its ID, and is still available!
