Once you start eating it, you'll never stop. No one has yet to develop that in here.
I am going to contact the firm regarding the Philippine lacatan now that I know I can grow bananas in my backyard.
Thanks for the info.
Benny, if you can be patient, I have a Lakatan. If it produces a pup this next spring we can work out something cheaply. Going Bananas wouldn't sell me one because they only had them potted and only ship tissue culture plants to Californai and I got mine from Jon Verdick (webebananas aka Pintagadiego).
