Default Re: Banana planting depth:is it important and do they adjust themselves to their liki

No,my garden in Pyrgos is quite wind sheltered. Even leaf shredding seldom happens on my bananas there and even then,its a few tears here and there only! I didnt support that plant after the transplant at all and it never leaned with the wind,it rooted as i left it,leaning just a little from the weight of its leafs and towards the wind and sun.

The fun thing is,the area nearby Pyrgos can frequently get gale force winds and even strong hurricanes have formed more rarely,causing astonishing damage! They never touched Pyrgos strong,they were felt like just stronger than normal wind!
