Default Re: Cold Hardy Bananas spotted at Home Depot

I have also seen some sorry plants at both lowes and HD, but on Aug. 10 2007 I went to HD to get some potting soil and walked out side to the garden center when lo and behold I thought I saw a Cavandish among the Cannas, on closer inspection I found it to be a Zebrina Rojo and then another and two Gran Nains at $2.99 each. I had to get them, and they are doing great in pots on my patio, the girl there told me as I was looking through the rest of the skid they were sitting on, their were more in the back of the center but when I checked, Alas, no mo nanners,just cannas, I have pics in my gallery of the new additions from when I potted them up, I just felt very lucky that day, and thankfully the wife felt tha same way( or maybe just sorry for me ) this is my 1st year trying to grow Bananas or citrus. Haven't got a CLUE. But with the help of everyone here on the forum we're all do'in OK. So a Great Big Thank You to everyone!
