Default Re: Take a look before the Fall

It is also movable. You can protect them during winter and I believe you can have it fruited in there. As long as they are dwarfed.

Harvey, the pics above are the most updated pics I have taken on 10/15/07. No I have not tasted my Calif Gold yet. I will wait before the first sign of frost before I'll cut it down.
It is just for show to my friends because noone has ever seen a banana tree here with fruit. So am I. until I tried it.
I can buy manzano and other cooking bananas at the oriental store here but I am sure a tree ripened bananas will taste much better so are my persimmons and Fuji apples. I let them ripened on the tree.

Dean, Mark and Anna: Thanks and I am glad I can contribute on new knowledge how to grow them.
It's my craze now growing bananas. I've done almost a lot growing citrus of every kind and T-budding and grafting them but now bananas is a new frontier for me.
Thanks guys I am learning a lot here.
