That time of year again and this past week, the more tender bananas were dug an prepped for storing under the house. This included mysore, golden aromatic, saba, rose, ice cream, zebrinus, and praying hands. Just thought I would share what I get to work with this year and hopefully have a great jump on 2012 season!!!
Here are my two clumps of praying hands. The first is in the back of this bed.

Here are the two largest pstems: (son-in-law is 6'1" for scale)

Here are the smaller praying hands that will go into storage:

This is why praying hands are one of my favorites! Leaves are remarkable in size!!! This one is over 9' in total length:

Here are all my pstems (20+) ready for winter storage:

Definitely a lot of work, but sure is nice in the summer!!!
Here's to a MILD and SHORT winter!!!
