Welcome Craig from wet and warm central Florida, we got started for bananas as fodder for our cattle but caught the bug. Now have over 15 varieties and are deciding on which ones to continue with. There are four plants with bananas on them now and they will be for sure keepers. Praying hands gotten from Stan a nearby friend, Manzano, a tissue cultrure, Drawf Brazilian, and a Drawf Orinoco (I believe). This year the rains were very generous and the plants all loved it and prospered. We have what was sold to us as Ice Cream but don't know for sure yet. So far the D. Brazilian and the Manzano are the favorites with the Praying Hands running in there with them.
Good growing and stay healthy.
