Default Re: Market Flooded with Mekong Giant

Here's another update (see below for more info):

The Mekong Giant is invasive in my climate. You've been warned. The plant is slightly less hardy than basjoo but its invasive roots, now 10 foot from the original plant site, are everywhere. Each root is about 3-4 inches around and are growing thicker and farther by the day. I cut the thick roots into sections, planted them as an experiment, and the plant grows from the cut roots. No other banana in my collection (past or present) grows in the manor.

P.S. Yeah, I know this thread is worthless without pictures.
